More about Kathryn

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Welcome! I'm glad you're here.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) from Kentucky with five years of experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and families navigate life's challenges. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, and I'm committed to creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, adjustment disorders, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), and parenting challenges. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by stress, navigating a major life transition, struggling with emotional regulation, or looking for effective parenting strategies, I'm here to help you build practical skills and move toward meaningful change.

My therapeutic approach is personalized to meet your needs and goals. I utilize evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI), to help clients develop healthy coping strategies, improve communication, strengthen relationships, and increase resilience.

I believe everyone has strengths that can be built upon, even during difficult seasons of life. Together, we'll identify what's working, address the obstacles standing in your way, and create realistic, achievable goals that support your overall well-being.

I appreciate the opportunity to be part of your journey and look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
