Katy uses a Strengths-Based, Person-Centered approach to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, with a focus on empowering people to make positive changes in their own lives by helping them to identify distorted core beliefs that may be affecting how they feel and behave. There is a lot of research into using different types of therapy to help facilitate change for people with IDD.
