Background and approach

Kathryn draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to distress. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and responses. For people coping with trauma, she integrates trauma-focused techniques to reduce the grip of painful memories and reactions.

Solution-focused work is used to set short-term goals and find concrete changes that bring relief. Over time the mix of approaches is adjusted to match what’s working for the individual. Kathryn emphasizes collaboration.

She guides, teaches skills, and checks in about what’s helpful. The pace and focus are set together so therapy stays useful and relevant. Her practice supports a wide range of concerns beyond the main specialties, including family of origin issues, attachment questions, chronic illness and pain, first responder stress, and body image.

Sessions are offered in English and take place online through a range of formats.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. In practice this means talking about patterns in relationships and learning new ways to respond that reduce anxiety and improve connection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety active.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kathryn discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods as they go. This collaborative style helps find what feels useful, whether the focus is short-term problem solving or deeper trauma processing.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation to practice skills and notice body language. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a brief check-in. Live chat and texting can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day and to share thoughts between longer sessions. These options support flexibility so therapy can fit work, family, and life obligations.
