How CBT and Trauma-Focused Care Work Online
Many clients meet Katrina for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT breaks concerns into manageable steps and often uses short exercises to practice outside sessions.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the impact of difficult experiences on daily life. That approach looks at how memories, triggers, and coping strategies influence mood and relationships, and it offers paced techniques to reduce distress.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Katrina will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit the situation. Plans can change as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports quick questions or reminders between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between appointments.
