BHow sessions work
How Kathleen uses CBT and Internal Family Systems online
Kathleen draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT is useful when anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem are driven by patterns of thinking that make everyday tasks harder.She also uses Internal Family Systems to map the different parts of someone’s inner life, such as critical or protective parts, and to reduce internal conflict. This approach can help when guilt, shame, or control issues get in the way of making changes.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kathleen will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend which methods to try. The choice is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
The practical benefit of online work is fitting sessions into busy lives. Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule meetings around work, caregiving, or medical appointments, and they can reduce travel time. If someone prefers shorter check-ins or less time on camera, that can be discussed and arranged to match day-to-day constraints.
