How Cathryn works
Cathryn adapts sessions to each person’s needs, combining tools from cognitive and mindfulness-based approaches. She focuses on concrete skills that clients can use between meetings, such as coping plans, behavior experiments, and grounding practices. Sessions tend to be collaborative and straightforward.
Cathryn listens first to understand what is most pressing, then works with the person to set manageable goals. She teaches ways to notice difficult thoughts and feelings, and to respond differently rather than getting stuck in old patterns. Her approach also includes acceptance-based methods and techniques to improve communication and emotional regulation.
People often work on improving self-awareness, reducing avoidance, and strengthening healthy habits that support mood and daily functioning. Cathryn offers multiple online session formats to fit different schedules and needs. Her style is practical and compassionate, aiming to help people build tools that fit their everyday lives and move toward goals at a comfortable pace.

Online support options
How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide what matters most to them. It uses values-guided actions and simple exercises to reduce avoidance and build a more meaningful day to day. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, with practical tasks and experiments to try between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication for intense emotions and relationship struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Cathryn will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts tools over time so sessions stay focused and useful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for face-to-face conversations, phone sessions when bandwidth or camera time is limited, live chat for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, try shorter or more frequent contacts, and use the format that helps someone stay engaged and make steady progress.
