About Kathi

Kathi works with individuals who want practical skills and steady emotional support while they figure out next steps. Her approach is straightforward and warm. Sessions focus on clear goals, teaching coping skills, and looking at patterns that get in the way of feeling better.
Background and approach
She uses talking, skill practice, and guided exercises rather than long lectures. Kathi draws from several therapy styles to tailor care to each person. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take meaningful action. She also integrates client-centered listening, dialectical behavior skills for emotion regulation, and EMDR for trauma work when appropriate. She holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC, and has about ten years of experience working with people in Colorado.
Sessions are offered in English and available through a mix of online formats. Kathi emphasizes a nonjudgmental tone and practical steps people can use between sessions. People who choose to work with her will find a steady, goal-minded companion for the hard parts of life.
The focus is on building tools, reducing overwhelm, and helping clients move toward the life they want.
How specific approaches are used in online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions when someone wants to focus on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical tools to change them. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided processing; it can help when trauma or abuse is a central issue.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan over time. Clients and the therapist decide together which tools feel most useful and when to combine approaches for better results.
Online sessions offer flexibility and multiple ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be a good shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging support frequent, brief contact and skill coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules while still focusing on real progress.
