Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and wants support deciding next steps. Kathryn has extensive experience helping people recover after abuse and repeated trauma, and she helps others adjust after job or relationship changes.
She also works with mood concerns such as bipolar disorder, anxiety, and depression, and with issues like addiction, grief, and compassion fatigue. Her style is nonjudgmental and practical. Sessions focus on realistic steps people can try between meetings.
Kathryn aims to help clients build skills that make daily life easier and more manageable. People can expect a collaborative approach where the counselor and client set goals together. Kathryn emphasizes respect and compassion while guiding clients toward meaningful change.
Approaches and online care that meet you where you are
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what is most important to the person. The therapist offers empathy and respect while helping clients describe goals and priorities, which suits concerns like self-esteem and coping with life changes.CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete skills to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and adjust methods over time. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what feels useful for the client.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit during a work break. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins and ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while working with a licensed professional.
