About Katherine
Katherine Denney is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, substance use concerns, mood struggles, and low self-esteem. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first step feel doable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed. She draws on over 10 years of experience in social work and four years in counseling.
That background shapes a practical style that focuses on a person's strengths. Sessions center on finding small, usable tools that fit daily life and reduce things that get in the way.
Background and approach
Katherine tends to help people build confidence, improve communication, and manage symptoms of mood disorders including bipolar concerns. She supports work on self-love and women's issues when those come up in therapy. Her approach is collaborative and goal-oriented, with attention to what the person already does well.
In sessions she helps clients name what is most stressful, then creates simple strategies to address it. She uses plain language and step-by-step plans rather than jargon. The aim is progress that can be noticed between meetings.
Katherine encourages people who are ready to try therapy to take that first step. She offers a supportive atmosphere and practical coaching to help people move toward a more satisfying life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Evidence-based techniques focus on practical skills and behavioral strategies. One common way is to identify strengths and build small, daily habits that reduce anxiety and stress. This helps people get manageable wins and feel more in control of mood and motivation.Another approach emphasizes coping skills for substance use and mood instability. Sessions include planning for triggers, rehearsal of healthier responses, and building routines that support recovery and stability. These strategies are aimed at real-life changes rather than abstract concepts.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, try techniques, and adjust plans based on what works. That collaborative process makes it easier to find methods that fit someone’s life and needs.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer therapy talks and role-playing communication skills. Phone sessions can be easier when internet speed is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick updates, brief coping reminders, and flexible scheduling that fits around work or family obligations.
