How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in the room. It means the therapist listens closely, follows the client's lead, and helps clarify what matters most. This approach is useful for stress, relationship concerns, and improving everyday coping.Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the aftereffects of distressing events. It involves gentle, structured work to reduce the ways past events interfere with current life and relationships. This approach can help when trauma symptoms or post-traumatic stress alter mood or behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Katherine will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels practical, then recommend ways of working that match those needs. Clients are invited to give feedback so the plan can be adjusted over time.
