Therapy Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Kathryn Gargett draws from evidence-based approaches that can be especially practical in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It can help clients notice unhelpful patterns, practice new skills, and build more workable routines for concerns such as anxiety, mood challenges, and day-to-day stress.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and navigating relationships. It is often useful for people who feel overwhelmed by intense emotions or want more tools for staying grounded during conflict or high-stress moments. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most, supporting meaningful change without getting stuck in constant self-criticism or avoidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kathryn collaborates with clients to clarify goals, understand preferences, and choose strategies that fit their needs, including support for executive functioning and neurodivergent experiences.
Online therapy offers flexible options, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to get consistent support, continue work between sessions, and choose a format that matches comfort level and schedule.
