Online support
Attachment-informed and ACT approaches for online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how patterns from past relationships shape current connections and feelings. It can help people who struggle with trust, fear of abandonment, or repeated relationship conflicts understand their responses and try new ways of relating.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values-based action, which can help with anxiety, depression, chronic stress, and life changes.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the person's own goals. In sessions the therapist offers a steady, nonjudgmental presence while helping the person clarify what matters and pick steps forward.
Choosing an approach is a team process. Katy will work with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She often blends techniques and adjusts plans as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversations and reading nonverbal cues, phone calls can be easier if bandwidth is limited, and messaging can fit quick check-ins or days when a shorter contact is needed. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, caregiving, and travel.
