About Catherine
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions focus on concrete skills such as coping strategies, clearer communication, and steps to reduce panic or overwhelming worry. She uses methods that help people notice patterns in relationships and everyday thinking.
Catherine blends attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered conversation. That means she pays attention to how early relationship patterns affect current reactions, looks at thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety, and centers the person’s own goals and values. Existential questions about meaning and motivations are also part of her work when people are reassessing what matters.
People often come for help after a life change, during parenting strain, or when they feel stuck about their purpose or direction. Sessions aim to make things more manageable week to week and to identify small, practical changes that reduce stress and improve communication.

How her approaches translate to online work
Catherine commonly draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Attachment-based approaches look at how earlier relationship patterns influence current reactions and help people notice and change repetitive ways of relating. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies to reduce anxiety and panic.She also uses client-centered conversation and motivational interviewing to explore what clients want and what matters next. This means deciding together which methods to try and adjusting the plan as needs and goals become clearer. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process and is decided collaboratively.
