How her approaches work in online therapy
Katrina uses client-centered work to focus on each person’s concerns and goals. That approach means she listens closely, follows what matters most to the client, and shapes sessions around their needs rather than a fixed agenda.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and everyday habits that influence mood and behavior. CBT helps break down patterns into manageable steps and builds practical skills for daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Katrina will discuss options and try methods collaboratively, adjusting based on what helps most. Clients and therapist work together to set goals and test small changes between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from home or work when quieter surroundings are available. Phone sessions can require less bandwidth and are useful for shorter check-ins, while video sessions allow for face-to-face interaction when that is preferred. Licensed professionals can adapt the style and pacing of sessions to match a person’s needs and everyday routine.
