Background and approach
Sessions tend to center on what is most pressing and on simple skills to manage mood and behavior between meetings. Her work blends client-centered care with evidence-informed techniques. That means she listens first, then uses tools from cognitive behavioral work, dialectical behavior ideas, and mindfulness to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build coping skills.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas are used when people want clear, short-term goals. Katrina emphasizes collaboration. She helps clients set goals, track small changes, and adjust methods when something isn’t working.
The overall aim is better day-to-day functioning and more confidence handling difficult moments. People who choose her can expect a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere and direct feedback when useful. Katrina welcomes questions about approach and pacing so each person’s plan fits their life and needs.
How practical therapy methods translate online
Katrina combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior ideas. Client-centered therapy means the session begins with the person’s priorities and Katrina responds with empathy and clear questions to get the conversation moving. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small experiments, which helps with anxiety, depression, and coping. Dialectical behavior therapy adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which is useful for anger, relationship problems, and strong mood swings.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Katrina will talk through goals, try methods, and change course as needed so techniques fit personal needs and daily life. That collaborative stance helps people see what produces change and what needs adjustment.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skills practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in fits a work break. Live chat and messaging allow brief updates, coaching between sessions, and flexible support without a scheduled call. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when schedules change.
