Kathleen Stevens, LCSW

Kathleen Stevens is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 31 years of clinical experience practicing in Florida. She has supported a wide range of people, including birth parents, adoptive parents, active duty military members and their spouses, veterans, and others facing anxiety, communication challenges, confidence concerns, trauma, abuse, and related issues.

Her counseling approach is interactive and warm, and she often uses gentle humor to help clients feel at ease. Kathleen practices without judgment and treats each person with respect, creating a collaborative environment where clients’ strengths are recognized and used to move forward.

Kathleen uses solution-focused therapy to help clients define clear goals and identify practical steps to reach them. Treatment plans are individualized to meet each person's unique objectives and can be adjusted as progress is made.

She believes many people possess more insight into their situations than they initially realize, and that recognizing those insights can accelerate progress toward goals. Kathleen welcomes the opportunity to work with new clients and assist them in achieving the outcomes they seek.

Solution-Focused Care and Online Access

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying clear, achievable goals and building on what is already working in a person's life. It emphasizes small, practical steps and focuses on strengths and effective actions rather than an extended review of problems, making it useful for concerns like stress, anxiety, relationship issues, and coping with life changes.

Kathleen's interactive, warm counseling style complements solution-focused work by engaging clients in a collaborative process that values their insight and priorities. Sessions are designed to be respectful and goal-oriented, with treatment plans adjusted as progress and needs evolve.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Kathleen will help determine which strategies best match each client's goals, needs, and preferences, adapting methods as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals can provide support through multiple online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - offering flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels and making it easier to access consistent care from wherever clients are located.
