Kathryn holds professional credentials as an LPC and an LPCC - Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - reflecting her clinical training and state licensure.
Kathryn works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career questions, addictions, relationship and family issues, intimacy-related concerns, sleep difficulties, anger, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on ADHD, compassion fatigue, autism and Asperger syndrome, multicultural issues, obsessive-compulsive concerns, postpartum depression, prejudice and discrimination, seasonal affective disorder, self-harm, women's issues, and young adult transitions. Her approach combines evidence-informed techniques with a practical aim of helping clients meet their goals and improve day-to-day functioning.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Kathryn commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical skills and structured exercises, often benefiting those dealing with anxiety, depression, addiction, and sleep or anger issues. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on accepting difficult feelings while clarifying personal values and committing to actions that move a person toward a meaningful life - a useful approach for stress, low self-esteem, and coping with life transitions. In addition, her client-centered work emphasizes empathy and support, giving clients space to explore their concerns and build confidence at their own pace.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Kathryn collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they tailor a plan that may combine techniques from different approaches to fit the client's situation.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and ways of communicating that suit different lifestyles. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent care from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other commitments.
