Client-centred care adapted for online sessions
Catherine’s main approach is client-centred therapy, which means she focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead. This helps when people want a space to be heard, to work through emotions and to make decisions at their own pace.She often applies that same mindset to work with chronic illness and pain, paying attention to how long-term health issues affect mood, identity and everyday routines. The emphasis is on understanding lived experience and finding practical coping steps that fit each person’s life.
Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Catherine will work collaboratively to see what fits best. She discusses goals and preferences with each client and adjusts the way she works to match their needs.
