About Katherine
Katherine Treadway is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship problems. She also supports those dealing with trauma, parenting strain, addiction concerns, and career or identity questions. Katherine writes plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person.
Her style is warm and practical. She focuses on small, doable changes that make daily life easier. Sessions often include straightforward skills to manage emotions, ways to improve communication, and steps for coping with big life changes.
Background and approach
Katherine uses several approaches to match a person’s needs. She blends acceptance and commitment ideas with cognitive behavioral tools and client-centered listening. This mix helps people clarify values, shift unhelpful thoughts, and build habits that support lasting change.
Her background includes work with veterans, first responders, and people facing workplace stress. She brings four years of clinical experience as an LCSW - licensed clinical social worker - practicing in North Carolina. That experience informs her practical, trauma-aware way of working.
Sessions aim to be collaborative. Katherine helps people set clear goals, try new skills between meetings, and adjust plans when something isn’t helping. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes, and on restoring balance in everyday life.
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match your values. It helps people who feel stuck by teaching them how to accept difficult feelings while moving toward meaningful goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood shifts. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and uses empathetic listening to help clients feel understood and find their own solutions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and recommend a mix of methods based on what you need. That collaborative process helps shape a plan you can test and adjust over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets you see nonverbal cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can fit a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text are useful for short check-ins, skill coaching, or daily accountability. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into work, parenting, or travel schedules.
