About Kathee

Kathee Foxan is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience in Iowa. She uses a practical, problem-solving style to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by mood and anxiety symptoms. Her work often addresses depression, stress, anger, and addictions in straightforward conversations focused on what matters most to the client.

She trained as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and applies those principles to help people notice unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Kathee also draws on client-centered methods to shape sessions around each person’s goals. Mindfulness skills and techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy are used when they fit the situation.

Much of her background comes from community mental health settings and nursing home work. She has supported people across ages, from young children to older adults, and has experience helping those facing poverty, legal involvement, or loss of independence. That history informs how she plans realistic steps clients can try between sessions.

In sessions she talks through coping skills, problem-solving, and ways to reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life. She commonly addresses relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, sleep problems, and career-related concerns. Her practical focus aims to help people build small, manageable changes over time.

People choosing to work with her will find an approach that mixes evidence-informed methods with straightforward, empathetic conversation. She encourages collaboration so treatment fits the client’s needs and life circumstances.

How these approaches translate to online work

Kathee commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that worsen mood and anxiety. CBT sessions include setting clear goals, trying small behavior changes, and reviewing results together to see what helps.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions follow the client’s priorities and pace. That approach is useful when people want space to talk through stressful life events, grief, relationship strain, or role changes. Mindfulness techniques are offered as short practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus in everyday life.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try things that fit the person’s goals, and adjust methods based on what is most helpful. Clients are invited to give feedback so the process stays practical and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session formats before booking. The main practical benefit is that sessions can fit into busy schedules more easily, which helps keep momentum between appointments. Online work also makes it easier to practice skills in day-to-day settings and to schedule brief check-ins when life gets hectic.
