Background and approach
Katrina supports those coping with life changes, caregiver stress, and career struggles by breaking problems into manageable steps. Katrina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical approach that looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions to find useful changes. She prefers to tailor sessions to each person’s goals and daily life.
Sessions often include straightforward exercises and strategies to try between meetings. Katrina values a nonjudgmental and open-minded atmosphere. She believes people grow when they feel heard and seen, and she aims to offer a steady presence as clients work through hard moments.
The work in sessions centers on self-awareness and small, sustainable shifts. Her background in diverse clinical settings gives her experience with complex situations. Katrina describes therapy as a collaborative process where both people decide on the next steps.
She guides clients toward clearer thinking, better communication, and more effective coping.
How CBT and Online Sessions Work Together
Katrina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to change how they feel. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood regulation because it focuses on small, practical steps and skill practice.The right approach is something to discover together. Katrina works collaboratively with each person to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and daily life. She adapts exercises so they fit into a person’s routine and checks in to see what helps most.
Online formats offer flexibility for ongoing work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports brief reflections or homework between meetings. These options make it easier to maintain momentum and try CBT tools in real time.
