How her methods translate to online work
Many of Catherine's primary methods are practical and skills-focused, which can adapt well to remote sessions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration; the therapist follows the person's lead, reflects concerns, and helps set goals. This approach helps people feel heard and decide which problems to tackle first.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to find small changes that shift daily life. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and some behavioral patterns related to addictions or anger. Motivational interviewing supports a person's own reasons for change and can be useful when someone feels uncertain about taking the next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Catherine will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She combines listening with concrete strategies and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use these formats to focus on skills practice, relapse prevention planning, and coping strategies that extend into everyday life.
