Katie Stevens

Katie Stevens, LSCSW, LCSW, helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and major life changes. She listens closely and offers practical support to help people move past roadblocks. Sessions are aimed at helping clients reach personal goals with steady encouragement and honest conversation.

Katie uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She combines that work with acceptance and mindfulness skills to reduce reactivity and increase clarity. Motivational interviewing ideas help when someone is weighing a big change or working through addiction concerns.

Her background as a social worker shapes a solution-focused style. That means sessions often look at daily habits, relationships, and obstacles that get in the way of progress. Katie also explores life context when needed to find underlying patterns.

She brings 13 years of clinical experience and has practiced in the Kansas region after spending earlier years in Nebraska and the Kansas City area. Katie says compassion guides her work and that she will address difficult topics directly when that helps the client.

People can expect a straightforward, nonjudgmental space where the therapist offers practical steps and steady support. Katie emphasizes collaboration - she and the client decide on goals and plan small changes that fit real life.

How Katie’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It focuses on accepting hard feelings while still moving toward a meaningful life, which can help with anger, depression, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses practical exercises and experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting, useful for anxiety, panic, mood problems, and impulsivity.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental listening style where the client’s goals guide the work. This approach supports building trust and clarifying what matters most to the person.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative tuning can mean mixing techniques over time as progress is made.

If you plan to use online therapy, confirm which session formats Katie currently offers before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, or choose shorter check-ins when that fits better. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping steady momentum between appointments.
