How Katrina’s approaches work in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take small steps towards those values. It helps when someone feels stuck, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers simple strategies to test and change unhelpful patterns. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating problems. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current trust and intimacy. It can be useful for people struggling with connection, abandonment worries or repeating relationship patterns.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Katrina will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then test methods that match those aims. Decisions about which approach to use are made together and reviewed as progress is measured.

The biography mentions that online counselling can be effective, but does not list specific session formats. Please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around everyday life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people try talking without needing to be in the same town as their counsellor, which can help with continuity during relocation or busy periods.
