Sessions are offered in English and are held in California. Clients considering therapy are encouraged to review session options before booking.

How evidence-based methods shape online care

Kaete uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide her work. One approach focuses on managing anxiety and panic by teaching breathing and grounding skills, helping people calm intense moments and regain control. Another approach targets relationship and communication problems, practicing clearer expression of needs and limits so interactions become less fraught.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods that fit the person’s preferences, and adjust over time. This helps ensure the plan matches what the client wants to change and how they prefer to work.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time and allowing quicker check-ins during a lunch break. It can also support steady progress through regular scheduled meetings and focused skill practice between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and conversations so work done online translates into everyday changes.
