She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, major life changes, relationship concerns, and parenting strain.

Background and approach
Her work often centers on reducing anxious thoughts, learning coping strategies after difficult experiences, and managing stress during transitions. She helps people sort priorities, practice new ways of responding, and build routines that support emotional balance. Kate aims to make the process feel steady and manageable.
She recognizes that starting therapy can be hard and encourages small steps at a comfortable pace. Progress is collaborative and based on clear goals set together. Sessions are offered in English and delivered remotely by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
She tailors how she communicates to match each person’s preferences and daily life. This flexible setup helps people fit care into busy schedules.
Approaches that guide online care
Kate uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and safety. One common approach she uses helps people identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety and worry; this involves learning new ways to notice thoughts and test them in daily life. Another approach centers on building coping skills after trauma and abuse, such as grounding exercises, emotion regulation strategies, and gradual exposure to reduce distress related to memories or triggers.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and longer sessions. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins or when it helps to send thoughts in writing. These options make therapy easier to fit into busy schedules and everyday life.
