Therapeutic approaches that work well online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life changes where taking small, consistent steps matters. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns of closeness and distance in relationships and helps people understand and change how they respond when they feel threatened or disconnected.Katie works collaboratively to find the best fit for each person. She will talk through goals and preferences and suggest approaches that match what the client wants to achieve. Together they check in and adjust the plan as progress unfolds so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers many practical benefits for this work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and visual cues when working on attachment and relationship issues. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier when video is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, coaching-style feedback, homework review, or when scheduling makes a quick exchange more practical. These options help sessions fit into real life and support steady progress.
