She helps people recognize strengths and build confidence while navigating stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship strain.

Background and approach
Kathryn uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques to create short-term goals and track progress. Kathryn has ten years of experience helping adults through life transitions. She supports people facing divorce, parenting changes, pregnancy and childbirth adjustments, and loss.
Her background includes work with maternal mental health concerns and with caregivers managing stress and role changes. Raised on a dairy farm in rural Kansas, she brings practical life experience to sessions and an understanding of rural concerns. She also draws on many years of parenting adult children to relate to parental strain and changing family roles.
Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Kathryn aims to create clear steps people can use between sessions, so progress continues outside the appointment time.
Evidence-based techniques for online care
Kathryn draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new thinking in everyday situations. This method helps people reduce anxiety and change patterns that maintain worry or low mood. She also uses Solution-Focused techniques to set clear, short-term goals and build on small successes that add up over time.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kathryn will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust strategies as progress is made. The focus stays on practical steps that can be used between sessions so change continues in daily life.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls are useful for deeper conversations, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and chat or messaging can work for quick reflections or ongoing support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
