How her approaches translate to online care
Catherine uses attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationships affect current patterns. This approach helps people notice recurring relational habits and learn new ways of connecting and setting boundaries.She also uses client-centered methods that keep the conversation focused on each person's goals and values. That means sessions look different depending on what someone needs - listening, coaching, or problem-solving.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. These skills can help with anxiety, low mood, and when reactions feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals and preferences. The plan can shift over time as needs change.
The practical benefits of online work can include easier scheduling, reduced travel, and fitting sessions into a busy week.
