How Kathleen’s Approaches Shape Online Care

Internal Family Systems views people as made up of different parts that can disagree or get stuck. Kathleen uses this idea to help people name those parts, reduce internal conflict, and build a clearer sense of self. This can be useful for issues like shame, guilt, and feeling isolated.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going. Kathleen helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try small, practical experiments to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, low mood, and everyday stressors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Kathleen will work with each person to decide which ideas and exercises fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time so the work stays relevant and doable.
