How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are practical ways to address symptoms and daily struggles. One approach focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going, and then trying small, concrete changes to shift those patterns. This helps with anxiety, low mood, and self-critical thinking.

Another common approach uses coping skills training to build tools for stress and emotional regulation. Skills can include paced breathing, activity planning, and step-by-step problem solving to reduce overwhelm and improve mood. These techniques are often taught in short exercises and practiced between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will collaborate with each person to decide what fits best based on needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time and checks in about what is working and what needs to change.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins around work or caregiving schedules. Some people prefer shorter phone check-ins when they need less bandwidth, while others choose video for face-to-face interaction; check which formats this therapist offers before scheduling.
