Approaches that translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, respect, and working at the client’s pace. In online sessions this means the therapist focuses on understanding each person’s story and building a trusting working relationship that guides change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related difficulties with focus and routine, sleep problems, and managing stress in daily life.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and improve concentration. These skills can be practiced between sessions and are helpful for emotion regulation and coping with intrusive memories or stress.

Katherine treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then try methods that fit those needs. If something isn’t working, she adjusts the plan together with the client.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is well suited to regular counseling and skill work. Phone sessions can be a lighter option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
