04Online support
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Catherine often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice their thoughts and take values-based action. ACT is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions because it encourages small steps toward what matters most.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT works well for stress, social anxiety, and many forms of low mood by giving clear tools to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. Together they review what helps and adjust strategies as needed so therapy feels personally useful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins or when messaging fits a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit sessions into work, school, or caregiving routines while still using ACT and CBT tools in practical ways.
