Evidence-based approaches for online work

Catherine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and find clearer ways to relate to themselves and others. One approach focuses on practical skill-building to reduce anxiety and panic, teaching breathing, grounding, and step-by-step exposure to feared situations. Another approach helps people look at family patterns and relationship dynamics, so they can change repetitive behaviors and improve communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Catherine collaborates with each person to decide what methods fit their needs, goals, and values. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies as progress and priorities change.

Confirm session formats before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during breaks or from different locations. It can also make some check-ins shorter and less visually demanding when needed. Talk with Catherine during the match process to find a scheduling arrangement that fits your routine and goals.
