Remote sessions and therapeutic methods



Kathryn offers online sessions that combine evidence-informed techniques tailored to each client's goals. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, creating practical steps for change. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when those areas are priorities.

Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach for clients working through ambivalence or seeking to build readiness for change. These methods are presented collaboratively, with Kathryn and the client deciding together which skills and strategies best fit the situation. Sessions are available by video, by phone, through live chat, or with text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences and life circumstances.
