About Katie

Katie Stevens is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 13 years of experience based in Kansas. She focuses on common and persistent problems like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and anger while also addressing relationship and parenting concerns. Katie works directly with people on addiction issues, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, ADHD, and career or life-purpose questions.

Her style centers on clear, practical work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and to build different ways of responding. Sessions are solution-focused and look at daily habits, thoughts, and behaviors that affect mood and relationships.

Katie combines CBT with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness tools when useful. She also uses client-centered listening and motivational interviewing to help people clarify goals and commit to change. Expect straightforward conversations about what’s getting in the way and small, manageable steps forward.

She brings experience from many settings and a direct, nonjudgmental approach. Katie says no topic is off-limits and that she will talk through difficult material to get to practical options. Her background includes working with people facing postpartum struggles, panic attacks, seasonal mood shifts, and compassion fatigue.

Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are accepted. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The work aims to reduce overwhelming reactions and build more control over anger and daily stressors.

How her approaches translate to online work

Katie draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to track the thoughts and behaviors that keep anger and mood problems active. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises, daily behavior changes, and short experiments to test different responses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and accept uncomfortable feelings while still taking meaningful action toward goals. Mindfulness therapy offers simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase notice of early warning signs.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Katie will work collaboratively to identify which strategies fit the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation usually includes trying a technique for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can be scheduled around work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. Others appreciate being able to use mindfulness exercises between sessions and to practice skills in everyday settings. Licensed professionals generally aim to make sessions fit into daily routines while keeping the therapeutic focus on practical steps to manage anger and stress.
