About Katie

Katie Stevens, LSCSW, LCSW, helps people work through stress, anxiety, ADHD concerns, and life changes. She offers steady support when moods, relationships, or unhealthy habits get in the way of daily life. Katie speaks plainly and listens first so people feel heard before making change plans.

Katie uses practical tools drawn from cognitive behavioral ideas. She and the client look at patterns of thinking and behavior and try out small changes that can make routines easier.

Background and approach

Sessions are solution-focused while still leaving room to look at what started the problem. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She encourages honest talk about difficult topics including trauma, grief, and struggles with addiction.

Katie aims to help people build skills for emotion regulation, impulse control, and clearer communication. Katie has 13 years of clinical experience and has lived in the Kansas City metro area for many years. She enjoys spending time outdoors and values family time outside of work.

Those personal interests shape a down-to-earth and practical therapy approach. People working with Katie can expect collaborative goal-setting and concrete homework between sessions when useful. She helps clients identify small, achievable steps toward better routines, stronger relationships, and more consistent mood management.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that move someone toward a meaningful life, even when uncomfortable feelings remain. It can help with motivation, life changes, and living with attention differences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood, and impulsivity. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the client’s lead to build trust and insight.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust plans based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques to use and how quickly to move forward.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls provide face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging lets people share thoughts between sessions. These options make it easier to fit regular care into everyday life while using the approaches described above to make steady progress.
