About Kathee

Kathee Foxan is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience using practical, evidence-based approaches to help people manage mood, anxiety, anger, and sleep concerns. She brings a calm, straightforward style and focuses on clear steps people can use between sessions. Kathee’s work often centers on improving daily routines, coping skills, and sleep patterns to reduce stress and restore energy.

She has spent much of her career in community mental health. For 13 years she worked in that setting and has supported residents in nursing homes for six years. That background means she is familiar with the challenges of chronic illness, changing independence, and caregiver stress.

Kathee has worked with a wide age range, from young children to people in their nineties. She often supports people facing poverty, substance use and addiction, trauma histories, legal involvement, and the emotional impact of losing independence. These experiences inform how she structures sessions and sets practical goals.

Her practice draws on client-centered methods along with cognitive behavioral tools, dialectical behavior skills, EMDR, and mindfulness techniques. She usually focuses on concrete strategies like sleep routines, behavioral experiments, and distress tolerance skills. Sessions are paced to match each person’s needs and energy.

People who choose Kathee can expect a therapist who listens, prioritizes doable steps, and pays attention to sleep and daily habits as part of recovery. She works from Iowa and offers care in English.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and priorities. It involves active listening, asking about what matters most, and shaping sessions around those goals to address stress, relationships, or sleep routines.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. It offers practical tools such as sleep scheduling, activity planning, and behavioral experiments to test new habits for anxiety, depression, and insomnia.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance. It can help people who struggle with intense moods, anger, or impulsive behaviors by teaching concrete coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kathee will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by saving travel time, offering shorter check-ins when needed, and allowing appointments during breaks or between other obligations. Licensed professionals can also guide home-based sleep routine changes and coach practical coping skills that translate directly to everyday routines.
