About Kathleen
Kathleen Corona is a licensed clinical social worker with more than two decades of experience helping people in Florida. She brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Kathleen uses plain language and a steady presence to guide conversations about hard problems.
She has worked across settings and helps with a wide range of concerns. Those include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and mood disorders.
Background and approach
Kathleen also supports people dealing with relationship strain, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, sleeping problems, and career stress. Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods. Kathleen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She draws from Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and Mindfulness Therapy for grounding and focus. She also incorporates Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are central. Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal oriented.
Kathleen helps people set clear, manageable goals and practices new skills in session. She often offers tasks to try between meetings so progress continues outside of therapy. People who do best with her approach are those looking for structured guidance paired with empathy.
Kathleen aims to help people increase self-compassion, manage strong emotions, and find clearer direction when life feels overwhelming.
How therapeutic approaches translate online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online CBT sessions usually include clear goals, homework exercises, and skill practice to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Those tools can be taught in-session and practiced between meetings to help manage strong emotions and impulsivity. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding emotional responses and shifting patterns in close relationships to improve connection and communication.Kathleen works collaboratively to find the best approach for each person. She will talk about needs, goals, and preferences and recommend techniques or a mix of approaches. Clients often try a few strategies early on to see what fits and then steer the work together as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions, send updates, or get short coaching-style guidance. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping treatment steady and focused.
