How Kaitlyn works
Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings to handle hard moments and unexpected setbacks.

She pays attention to workplace stress and young adult issues, and she supports people exploring LGBT identity and women's issues.
Sessions are offered in English and provided online by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Kaitlyn works with each person to choose the pace and tools that fit their goals and day-to-day life.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. It emphasizes empathy and helping people find their own solutions, which can be done through conversation in video or phone sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; these activities work well over video and text when homework and tracking are shared between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the person to try methods that match their goals and comfort level, and adjust based on what helps most. That means starting with clear goals, trying tools in sessions, and deciding whether to focus on skills, trauma processing, or motivation over time.
Online sessions offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice and deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to share quick updates, do written exercises, or get support between appointments. These options help people use therapy in ways that fit their daily routines and needs.
