Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and values, then take small actions that match what matters most. It can help with anxiety, panic, and life changes by shifting attention toward meaningful behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns into clear steps to change them, which is useful for panic attacks, anxiety, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the therapist listens deeply and follows the client's pace, which can help people feel understood and more confident in making changes.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Katie will collaborate with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences. Together they will review what helps, adjust strategies, and make steady plans that suit daily life.

Many people find online sessions useful because they can more easily fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, or choose a quieter hour during the day. Online work also makes it easier to continue with therapy across locations for international clients. The therapist will discuss practical details when arranging sessions and help match a format to each person's routine and needs.
