Approaches and Support Available Online
Kate Wilson commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with clients online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and learning practical ways to respond to difficult thoughts and feelings, which can be useful for anxiety, stress and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathic, non-directive relationship so clients can explore their experiences at their own pace, often helping with self-esteem, grief and relationship issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and is often applied to anxiety, low mood and problem-solving in daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Kate will work collaboratively to determine which methods best suit an individual's needs, goals and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work remains practical and responsive to change.
Online therapy with Kate is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for people balancing work, family and other commitments. These options make it easier to access registered professionals from different locations and allow therapy to fit around a client’s life while maintaining regular contact and continuity of care.
