About Kitty

Kitty Bartley is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida who brings a background in social work and a personal understanding of the transformative power of therapy to her clinical work. She began her career as a social worker in Ohio and, after experiencing therapy herself, decided to pursue a path helping others navigate life challenges. That personal experience, combined with education and professional training, shaped her commitment to teaching practical skills and coping techniques that people can use long term.

Bartley focuses on helping clients shift unhelpful thought patterns and build healthier responses to stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, trauma, and other challenges. She emphasizes tools that reframe negative internal scripts and strengthen emotional resilience, drawing on approaches that empower clients to manage mood, relationships, and life transitions. As an LMHC - a Licensed Mental Health Counselor trained to provide clinical therapy - she integrates evidence-informed strategies with a compassionate, client-centered stance.

Her goal is to equip people with lasting tools and techniques so they can move forward with greater clarity and confidence. Kitty works collaboratively with each person to identify practical steps for change, supporting clients as they learn to replace limiting beliefs and habitual reactions with healthier patterns.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Kitty Bartley commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with a client-centered approach. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT - helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or sensations arise; it is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - CBT - focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and other mood concerns. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens and supports the client as they find their own solutions and build self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Kitty works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps ensure therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats provide flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow continuity of care across changes in life circumstances. Working with licensed professionals remotely can make it easier to access consistent support while fitting therapy into a busy life.
