How her approaches guide online work
Catherine uses Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely, following each person's goals, and offering acceptance so people can speak freely and figure things out. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, reducing panic, and handling impulsivity and cravings. Finding the right approach is something to decide together. Catherine will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. The process is paced to the individual's needs, combining supportive listening with skills practice when useful. For online therapy specifics, please confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video or audio in ways that suit them as they practice DBT skills, work on panic reduction techniques, and track progress over time.Areas of expertise
