Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Catherine commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness therapy to address a wide range of concerns. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, empathic relationship in which the client’s experience guides the work - it can be especially helpful for self-esteem, relationship issues, and navigating life changes.

CBT is a structured approach that helps identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it often supports people managing anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and practical exercises to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can be useful for coping with grief, chronic stress, and overwhelming emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Catherine works collaboratively with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time to fit what proves most helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
