How Katie’s Approaches Shape Online Work
Attachment-based work focuses on how relationships shape feelings and behavior. In practice this means talking about patterns that show up in close relationships and trying small changes in how someone connects and responds to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions together. It helps people notice unhelpful thinking, test new ideas, and practice different behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention exercises that can reduce reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Katie treats the choice of methods as collaborative. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then try techniques together to see what feels most useful. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked and needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. That said, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Working online still permits hands-on CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and emotionally focused conversations that aim to change how people relate to themselves and others.
She helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and self esteem concerns, plus related issues like sleep problems, anger, bipolar symptoms, jealousy, and obsessive-compulsive behaviors.
