About Kathy
Over the course of her career, Kathy has worked with individuals facing grief and loss, burnout, self-esteem challenges, and a variety of emotional and behavioral health issues. She also addresses concerns such as panic attacks, postpartum depression, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and midlife transitions, tailoring care to each person’s unique strengths and circumstances.
Kathy uses evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness techniques to promote resilience and lasting change. As an LPC, she emphasizes a client-centered process that respects each person’s goals and pace, collaborating with clients to identify effective coping strategies and measurable progress.
The aim of Kathy’s work is to help clients gain insight, increase resilience, and move forward with greater confidence. She offers steady, nonjudgmental support for those seeking relief from current struggles or pursuing personal growth.
Evidence-Based Approaches for Remote Care
Kathy frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies for managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and panic. CBT focuses on the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and supports skill-building for everyday coping.
She also integrates Motivational Interviewing, a collaborative, goal-oriented style that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen their motivation for change. This approach is particularly useful when working through life transitions, habit change, or readiness for new coping strategies.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself. Kathy partners with each client to determine which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure treatment stays relevant and effective for the individual.
Online therapy with Kathy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options allow clients to receive consistent care from licensed professionals without needing to visit an office, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of support during life changes.
