How her approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice their values and take small steps toward them even when feelings are strong. It’s useful for anxiety, stress, and decisions about relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and managing impulsivity. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on emotional connection in relationships and can help couples repair trust and deepen intimacy.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Catherine will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. Over a few sessions the pair will adjust strategies so the work feels relevant and doable.

Confirm current session options before booking, since specific online formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow a shorter check-in when time is tight, and remove the need to travel to an office. Licensed professionals can use these options to keep therapy consistent with everyday life and focus on skills, communication practice, and emotional processing adapted for the session format chosen.
