About Kathee

Kathee Foxan is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience using cognitive behavioral approaches. She focuses on practical ways to reduce anxiety, manage mood changes, and address patterns that get in the way of daily life. Kathee works with people facing addiction, trauma, grief, and difficulties around intimacy and relationships. She also helps those coping with sleep problems, parenting strain, career stress, and life changes.

Her experience includes long-term work in community mental health settings and support for residents in nursing home environments. That background means she is familiar with a wide range of challenges, from chronic illness and aging concerns to substance use and loss of independence. She has counseled clients across the lifespan, from very young children to older adults.

In sessions she draws on client-centered methods to follow each person's goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new skills. For people who have experienced trauma, she offers trauma-focused strategies and mindfulness tools to reduce intense symptoms.

Kathee aims to create straightforward, goal-oriented sessions. Conversations often include skill practice, problem-solving, and steps to improve daily routines like sleep and coping with anger. Her work is practical and paced to each person's needs.

She is licensed as an LCSW in North Dakota and Illinois and practices in Iowa. Sessions are conducted in English and offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Kathee uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and build practical skills for mood and anxiety. CBT sessions often focus on small, do-able changes like sleep routines, coping strategies, and thought practice.

She also incorporates client-centered therapy, which means the conversation follows the client's goals and priorities. That approach supports people who need space to talk things through while getting feedback and encouragement.

Finding the best approach is a team effort. Kathee works with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on symptoms, history, and personal preference. Treatment plans are adjusted over time as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for longer therapy sessions and skill practice, while phone calls can fit a busy schedule or use less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging can work well for brief check-ins, homework support, or steady contact between longer sessions.
