Approaches Kathleen names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Mindfulness-based support through online therapy

Mindfulness Therapy helps people become more aware of their thoughts and bodily sensations in simple, nonjudgmental ways. It teaches short practices and breathing or noticing exercises that can reduce reactivity to stress, panic, and intrusive memories. This approach is useful for anxiety, panic attacks, and symptoms after trauma.

Sessions focus on learning skills together and trying them out in everyday life. Finding the best approach is a collaborative process - the therapist and client decide which techniques fit the person’s needs and goals. Kathleen helps clients test methods slowly and adjust them based on what feels helpful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth work and face-to-face interaction. Phone can be easier when bandwidth or movement matters. Live chat and texting work for short check-ins, written exercises, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make scheduling more flexible and let people fit therapy into busy lives.
