Background and approach

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) tools are used when trauma or intense emotions are a focus. Kathee has worked as a therapist in Iowa for 14 years. Much of her work has been in community mental health settings and in nursing home environments.

That range means she is familiar with a wide variety of life stages and practical challenges. She has supported people across many difficult situations, including poverty, substance use, legal involvement, loss of independence, and long histories of trauma. She has seen clients from early childhood through later life, and often helps with sleep, parenting strain, grief, and relationship concerns.

Sessions are offered in English and are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Kathee works with each person to pick approaches and tools that fit their goals and daily life.

Approaches that translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and experience, using listening and reflection to guide what comes next. It helps when someone needs a calm space to sort priorities and make choices.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical steps to change thinking and behavior patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday challenges by breaking problems into manageable parts.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. It can be paired with mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and increase steady coping.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, try specific tools, and adjust methods based on what works best for the person. That collaborative path helps match techniques to each client's needs and preferences.

Online therapy makes these methods more flexible. Video calls allow longer, in-depth work and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, homework review, and brief coping support between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and varied daily demands.
