How Catherine Uses Practical Approaches Online

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice concrete skills to reduce anxiety, depression, or workplace stress. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, achievable steps and on what is already working; it is useful for short-term problem solving and moving forward after a life change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Catherine will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped before. Together they decide whether to emphasize CBT skills, solution-focused steps, or a mix of both. That shared planning helps sessions stay relevant and focused on change that matters to the client.
