Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
About Kathryn
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.

What clients say
- “I was down in a place I didn’t want to be in when I desperately reached out for help. Since then, Kathryn has been the godsend I needed. I hadn’t had luck with therapy in the past but I liked her right away. She is honest with me, respects my time and lets me talk, and is always trying to work with me on how I can improve my mental health and myself as a person. I respect her and hold her in high regard because she truly knows what she is doing and is a kind soul.”
- “Simply amazing on all phases”
