About Katherine

Katherine Treadway is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, and trauma. She supports those dealing with parenting challenges, grief, addiction, and questions about intimacy or self-worth. Katherine also assists people navigating career pressures, life transitions, and ADHD-related difficulties.

Her practice emphasizes a steady, compassionate presence. She builds a space where clients can talk through painful memories and current struggles. Katherine focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. That can include acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive behavior tools, emotion-focused work, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Sessions center on understanding what matters to the person and teaching concrete skills to handle hard moments.

Katherine draws on four years of clinical experience as an LCSW in North Carolina. She has worked with young adults, veterans, first responders, and people facing workplace stress. That background informs her attention to reactions that come from high-pressure jobs or difficult life events.

Her style is straightforward and respectful. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and offers tailored exercises and reflections. People who want help sorting their priorities, repairing strained connections, or managing mood symptoms may find this approach helpful.

Approaches that guide online work and goals

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting ruled by them. It emphasizes clarifying values and taking small actions that move someone toward a meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It teaches concrete tools for managing worry, depression, and stress through step-by-step practice and short exercises between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day realities. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.

Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online work can make it easier to keep appointments around busy schedules, reduce travel time, and fit brief check-ins into a lunch break. It also allows using worksheets, in-session exercises, and between-session practice consistently, so skills can be tried and refined in everyday life.
