BHow sessions work
Approach-driven online sessions and practical tools
Therapy with Catherine draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing alongside Solution-Focused Therapy. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and helps people try small, specific changes to reduce anxiety and improve coping. Motivational Interviewing focuses on a person’s own reasons for change and helps clarify goals and resolve mixed feelings. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and concrete next steps, using short-term goals to build momentum.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Catherine will discuss what feels most useful and try methods that match the client’s goals and preferences. She adjusts the plan as needs change and checks in about what is working and what is not.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing a quicker check-in during a break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. Those practical benefits are part of deciding how to schedule sessions so therapy fits with work, caregiving, and other daily demands.
