How Katrina's Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy puts the client’s experience at the center of sessions, with the therapist listening closely and following what matters most to the person. This approach helps when someone needs an empathic space to sort through feelings and make personal choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing small behavioral changes. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills for managing mood and reactions.
Narrative Therapy helps people tell and rework the stories they tell about their lives. It’s often helpful when someone wants to separate themselves from a problem and try new ways of describing their experience.
Finding the right approach is often part of the first few sessions. Katrina works with clients to choose or combine methods based on needs, goals, and preferences. She treats the choice as a collaborative, ongoing decision rather than a one-time prescription.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer options for people who travel or live far from a counselor. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches for remote sessions while helping clients build skills that apply to daily life.
