Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Catherine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to current problems. Behavioral approaches focus on changing routines and habits to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. These techniques break problems into manageable steps and test new behaviors in daily life.Cognitive strategies address unhelpful thinking linked to low self-esteem and depression. Work in this area involves identifying common negative thoughts and practicing alternative, more balanced ways of thinking. This can help with social anxiety and improving self-talk.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, past efforts, and preferences to decide which techniques to try first. Methods can be adjusted over time based on what is helpful.
