About Kathee

Kathee Foxan is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Iowa with 14 years of experience. She focuses on mood and anxiety concerns, trauma and addiction, relationship and family stress, and issues such as codependency and grief. Kathee draws on clear, evidence-based methods and straightforward conversation to help people manage overwhelming feelings and everyday problems.

She began her career in community mental health and has spent over a decade working in that setting. Much of her work has also involved residents in nursing home settings over the last six years. That range means she has experience talking with people across many stages of life and levels of need.

Kathee often works with people dealing with substance use, legal problems, poverty, or loss of independence. She has provided care to clients from early childhood through late adulthood, including adults who face systemic or social hardship. She describes her work as practical and focused on what helps someone cope better day to day.

Her clinical approach includes Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, and Mindfulness Therapy. In sessions she uses talk, skills practice, and structured exercises to address symptoms and patterns that interfere with daily life.

People who reach out can expect straightforward planning and concrete techniques to try between sessions. Kathee supports people working through stress, anger, sleep problems, parenting strains, and shifts related to health or caregiving. She asks for a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedules a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people feel understood and clarifies goals for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation and interpersonal skills. It offers concrete tools for handling intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about problems, goals, and preferences and recommend one or more methods to try. They will check in and adjust the plan as needed so it fits the client's needs and life circumstances.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, as current options are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone choose sessions that suit their bandwidth or camera comfort. Licensed professionals and therapists often mix talk, skills practice, and brief between-session tasks in remote work to help progress continue between meetings.
