Background and approach
Her work often centers on communication and control issues that make daily life harder. She also helps people navigate divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt, shame, and feelings of isolation or loneliness. Panic disorder and panic attacks are additional areas she addresses.
Kaete encourages steady, practical steps rather than quick fixes. She supports clients in building skills they can use between sessions. Progress is framed around clear goals and small changes.
Her style is warm and direct. She invites questions and adjusts the approach to each person's needs. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling a session based on availability.

Approaches and online care for managing strong feelings
Kaete uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skill building and emotion management. One common approach focuses on recognizing triggers and learning concrete ways to respond to anger and panic attacks, helping people reduce reactivity and regain control in stressful moments. Another approach centers on communication skills and problem-solving to improve relationships and reduce isolation, teaching clear expression, boundary setting, and ways to repair conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client decide collaboratively which methods fit the client's goals, needs, and preferences. Kaete adjusts techniques over time based on what is most helpful and what the person finds doable between sessions.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video allows a fuller conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text messaging can fit a quick check-in or ongoing support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain steady progress without long commutes.
