About Katherine

Katherine Treadway is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, family issues, trauma and abuse, and challenges around parenting and relationships. Katherine also addresses concerns such as grief, addiction, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, depression, and coping with life changes.

She uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people sort through immediate problems. Sessions focus on clear skills and small, doable steps rather than long lectures. Conversations often cover communication habits, setting boundaries, and managing overwhelming emotions.

Katherine draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered approaches to guide her work. She also incorporates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when helpful. These tools are used to build coping skills, shift unhelpful thinking, and strengthen emotional regulation.

In blended household situations she helps people navigate new roles, loyalty conflicts, co-parenting tensions, and reorganizing routines. The goal is practical problem solving for daily life alongside addressing past hurts that affect present relationships.

Katherine sees international clients in English. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Costs vary by client location and sessions are managed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that align with their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and making steady changes in everyday life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking that drive distress and testing new behaviors. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and managing strong emotions in family situations.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and feedback so the client sets the pace and goals. This approach supports people who need space to process relationship shifts and past hurts.

Katherine treats finding the right approach as a collaborative task. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. Deciding which tools to use happens together over the first few sessions.

Confirm the session formats before you book, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to attend sessions from different places, fit short check-ins into a busy day, or avoid travel time. It also allows more consistent follow-up for skills practice between meetings.
