About Cathryn
She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. That can include cognitive-behavioral tools to change unhelpful thought patterns and acceptance-focused methods to build tolerance for difficult feelings. Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are offered to reduce overwhelm and improve emotion regulation.
With ten years of experience, Cathryn has worked with adults and adolescents on depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and stress from caregiving or career pressure. She focuses on building self-awareness, confidence, and practical coping strategies that fit daily life. Sessions aim to break down large problems into manageable steps.
Cathryn emphasizes collaboration. She listens for what matters most, then tailors strategies to each person’s situation. The work often includes goal-setting, practicing new skills between sessions, and tracking progress over time.
Her approach balances warmth with clear direction. People who prefer straightforward tools, steady support, and practical steps to handle emotions and relationships may find her style helpful.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It helps people clarify values and take small steps toward a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce anxiety and depression by teaching problem-focused strategies. Mindfulness-based work trains simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm in stressful moments.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made or priorities shift.
Confirm the available online session options before booking, since the biography does not list formats. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also makes it simpler to keep consistent momentum between appointments by practicing skills in everyday contexts. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness practices to work effectively through remote sessions when those formats are supported.
