About Katie
Katie Stevens is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people managing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. She invites straightforward conversation and practical steps. Katie uses clear, down-to-earth language so people feel heard and understand what comes next.
Katie draws on about 13 years of experience as a social worker and offers a solution-focused way of working. Sessions often look at current patterns and daily habits, then try small experiments to see what shifts feel doable.
Background and approach
She aims to help people reduce overwhelm and build skills that fit their life. Her work commonly includes cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to spot unhelpful thinking and slow automatic reactions. Katie also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify values and take purposeful steps toward them.
Motivational interviewing is used when clients want help with change, especially around substance use or other impulses. Clients can expect a warm, nonjudgmental presence and practical tools they can use between sessions. Katie will listen for what matters most and offer concrete strategies rather than long theory.
Many people say this approach helps them feel more steady and able to cope with everyday demands. Katie lives and practices in Kansas and welcomes conversations about work on parenting, grief, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, intimacy, sexual orientation issues, and career stress. She is comfortable talking about difficult topics and supports people in finding realistic next steps.
Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice inner thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It often supports people dealing with anxiety, life transitions, and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to ease symptoms and improve daily functioning. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and partnering with the person to set goals and pace the work according to their needs.Katie approaches choice of method as a collaborative process. She will talk with clients about what feels most useful, try different strategies, and adjust based on progress and preferences. The aim is to find approaches that fit each person's goals and rhythm rather than forcing a single method.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth conversation and teaching skills. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a session needs to fit into a work break. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, homework support, or people who prefer writing. These options make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into everyday life.
