Evidence-Informed Approaches, Delivered Online

Kimberly Stratton draws from several well-established therapy methods and adapts them to each client’s needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can clarify what they feel, what they want, and what matters most, which can be especially helpful during life transitions, relationship strain, or periods of low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical approach that helps clients notice unhelpful thought patterns and everyday behaviors, then develop new coping strategies. It is often used when anxiety, depression, stress, or workplace pressures begin to interfere with daily life.

EMDR is a structured approach that helps clients work through the impact of distressing experiences. It is commonly used when past events continue to feel emotionally “stuck” and influence present-day reactions, relationships, or sense of safety.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Kimberly works collaboratively with clients to identify goals, preferences, and pacing, and to adjust the plan as therapy unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options can make it easier to stay consistent with support while balancing work, family responsibilities, and changing schedules.
