Practical, Personalized Care Through Online Therapy

Catherine Wasson integrates several evidence-informed approaches to help clients work through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and building practical coping tools that support day-to-day functioning. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, helping clients clarify what matters most to them while strengthening self-understanding and self-esteem. When appropriate, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used to help clients process distressing experiences in a structured way, especially for trauma-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Catherine works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals and preferences, then adjusts the pace and focus so therapy feels relevant and workable over time. The plan is tailored to the individual rather than forced into a one-size-fits-all format.

Online therapy can make getting support more accessible and flexible. Clients can connect with Catherine through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can be especially helpful when schedules are busy or when consistent support is needed between sessions.
