About Kaycee
Kaycee Israel uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people through hard moments. She is a licensed clinical social worker with 12 years of experience. Her straightforward style aims to make therapy feel understandable and useful from the first session.
She starts by listening to each person’s story and priorities. That helps shape a plan that fits their life. Sessions often mix talking, problem-solving, and skills practice to manage symptoms and daily challenges.
Background and approach
Kaycee has spent a dozen years supporting people with anxiety, depression, and mood concerns like bipolar and seasonal affective disorder. She also addresses trauma and post-traumatic stress, grief, anger, and complications from addiction. Caregiver stress, work difficulties, and issues around self-worth are part of her focus as well.
Her work includes support for people connected to the military and veterans, and for those navigating major life transitions. She pays attention to how guilt, shame, isolation, and impulsivity affect decisions and relationships. Therapy is aimed at clearer thinking and steadier coping rather than quick fixes.
In sessions she uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive and skills-based tools. Mindfulness and narrative techniques help people reframe painful memories and find small, concrete changes to try between appointments. The goal is steady progress that matches each person’s pace and goals.
Practical therapy approaches you can use online
Kaycee often blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior strategies. Client-centered work focuses on hearing each person’s experience and shaping sessions around their goals; it helps people feel understood and set their own priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches concrete ways to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be useful for intensity of mood and impulsive reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kaycee will talk with a person about their situation and goals, and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative choice can change over time as needs shift or progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick reflections, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
