Online approaches for anxiety and trauma
Katlyn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address anxiety and trauma. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxious reactions and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity.She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and mindfulness techniques to build emotion regulation and present-moment awareness. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - Katlyn will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels workable, then adapt methods as therapy progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video lets people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or an option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow short exchanges and skill coaching between sessions. These options help fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping focus on the skills and strategies that support change.
