About Kitty
She helps people reframe negative self-talk and build healthier thinking patterns. Sessions emphasize simple tools and concrete steps rather than complex theory. Kitty aims to teach strategies clients can return to long after therapy ends.
Her work covers stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with major life changes. She also supports people dealing with relationship concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, and career strain. Kitty includes issues related to self-esteem, intimacy, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD in her practice.
Kitty draws from several therapy approaches to suit different needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts. Client-centered techniques create a listening space where clients feel heard and understood.
Her style is straightforward and coaching-oriented. People can expect practical exercises, thought-challenging, and mindfulness when useful.

How Kitty’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clarify what matters most to a person and encourages small steps toward those values. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions by linking actions to personal priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing thought patterns that lead to unhelpful feelings or behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and managing mood differences with concrete exercises and homework.
Client-Centered Therapy centers on attentive listening and reflection so people feel understood while they work through issues at their own pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kitty will discuss options together and tailor methods to the client's goals, needs, and preferences. She collaborates with each person to decide which tools to try and adjusts the plan over time.
