How Katie's Approaches Translate to Online Work
Katrina often uses client-centered methods that let the person lead the pace and topics. This approach is about listening closely and adapting sessions to each person's concerns and goals, which can fit well with online conversations.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing new ways of responding. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems because it gives clear skills to try between sessions. Katrina uses dialectical behavior therapy skills when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed, such as managing intense feelings or impulsive reactions.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Katrina will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences and recommend which methods to emphasize. She adapts plans over time based on what is working and what the person prefers.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Discuss practical needs like session length, camera use, and scheduling during the intake so sessions match everyday life.
