About Kathleen

Kathleen Stevens is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 31 years of experience based in Florida. She has a long history of working with people facing anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, grief, parenting stress, and life transitions. She brings a warm, interactive approach to sessions and often uses humor to put people at ease.

Her style is straightforward and nonjudgmental. She treats people with respect and listens for the strengths they already have. Kathleen uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help people set clear goals and identify steps they can take right away.

Sessions focus on what a person wants to change and the small, practical moves that make a difference. Plans are tailored to each individual and can be adjusted as needs shift. Kathleen believes many people understand their issues better than they think and can reach goals faster once those changes are clear.

She has worked with birth parents, adoptive parents, active duty military, veterans, and others dealing with communication problems, low confidence, post-traumatic stress, and workplace issues. Her background spans community and clinical settings in Jacksonville and around Florida.

People who prefer conversational, goal-oriented work often do well with her. She aims to help people recognize practical next steps and build on what already works in their lives. If you want a collaborative, down-to-earth counselor, Kathleen offers that kind of approach.

How solution-focused work fits with online therapy

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on clear goals and practical steps. It asks what a person wants to change and looks for small, achievable actions that move them toward that goal. This approach can help with anxiety, relationship problems, coping with life changes, and building confidence.

Kathleen’s conversational, warm style pairs with solution-focused work by keeping sessions directed and collaborative. She will work with each person to identify priorities and test short-term changes, then adjust the plan as needed. Finding the right approach is part of the process, and she helps clients decide what feels most useful for their needs and preferences.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It can remove travel time, let someone check in during a lunch break, or make scheduling across locations simpler. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for your schedule and goals so sessions can be arranged to fit daily life.
