How Katrina’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, listening space where the person leads the pace and goals. This approach helps when someone needs to feel understood and figure out what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and day-to-day problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds concrete tools for managing strong emotions and improving coping skills in stressful situations.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katrina will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people appreciate being able to schedule around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities while still working with a licensed professional.
