How sessions work
Therapeutic methods and online sessions
Kathryn draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thinking patterns that increase stress and anxiety. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and can be useful for depression, anxiety, and stress management.She also uses Solution-Focused techniques that concentrate on current strengths and small, concrete changes. This approach is often practical for people facing specific problems like communication breakdowns, caregiver strain, or life transitions such as divorce or new parenthood.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Kathryn will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and situation. She checks in periodically and adjusts the focus as needs change.
The therapist's profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins on busy days, or letting someone attend from a different room at home or during a break at work. Licensed professionals commonly use these options to help sessions work with a person's schedule rather than adding extra commitments.
