How narrative and attachment approaches work online
Katherine draws from Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their life stories and see problems as separate from the person. This approach can be useful for addressing identity questions, shame, and long-standing patterns that feel stuck.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationships affect current connections and emotional responses. That work often helps with intimacy concerns, relationship hurt, and patterns of worry or avoidance.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Katherine works collaboratively to identify goals and tries different techniques to see what fits the client's needs and preferences. She encourages clients to lead at their own pace while offering tools when they are helpful.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video can help preserve visual cues during deeper conversations, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in, and messaging or chat can support ongoing reflection between live sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
