How Kate’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate action. It helps when someone wants to move towards a meaningful life despite ongoing stress or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current behaviour and helps people understand patterns that affect present relationships and emotional safety.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kate will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will try approaches that suit you. That collaborative process helps shape the tools and homework used between sessions so they make sense in your daily routine.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer typing, want short check-ins, or need more flexible scheduling. Registered or accredited professionals use these formats to make therapy fit around work, family and travel commitments.
