Online support
Integrating relationship work and practical skills online
Katy commonly uses the Gottman Method to identify interaction patterns between partners and to teach concrete communication skills that reduce reactive cycles and increase connection. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early bonds influence adult relationships and emotional responses, helping clients see why they react the way they do and try new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns with clear exercises to manage anxiety, mood, and daily functioning.Finding the right fit is part of the therapeutic process. Katy works collaboratively to choose which approaches to emphasize based on each person’s goals, history, and preferences. She checks in about what is working and adjusts the plan so clients can try techniques that feel useful and realistic for their lives.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for relationship work, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging supports shorter check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats help people fit therapeutic work into busy schedules and different life situations.
