Approaches Katie Uses and how online work fits

Another approach centers on building practical skills like communication, boundary-setting, and problem-solving to address relationship stress and caregiver strain.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Katie collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as needs evolve. That collaborative selection helps keep sessions focused and useful for day-to-day life.
