Approaches used in online counselling and what they do
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them, and to choose actions that match their values; it is often used for stress, anxiety and motivation. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought and behaviour patterns that keep problems going, then testing and changing them to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try new ways of relating when relationships feel difficult.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Katrina will talk with each person about what they want to change and try methods that fit their goals and comfort level. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adapted over time as needs shift.
The biography mentions that online counselling can be effective but does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the exact options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people continue work when life circumstances make in-person visits harder. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, use these formats to help people make steady progress toward clearer goals and better day-to-day coping.
