About Katherine
Katherine Treadway is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in North Carolina with four years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, anger, trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, relationship strain, and mood disorders. She also helps people navigating career concerns, grief, addiction-related worries, and difficulties with self-esteem.
Katherine uses clear, practical conversations to untangle the things that keep repeating in daily life. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thinking patterns that fuel frustration and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients choose actions that match their values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy inform skills for handling intense emotions and improving communication.
Sessions focus on specific, useful steps rather than vague advice. Clients can expect work on managing strong reactions, setting and keeping boundaries, and repairing relationship ruptures. The therapist pays attention to family background, adoption or foster care issues, and experiences common to first responders.
Katherine combines short-term skill work with longer-term exploration when needed. She offers coaching-oriented tools for people juggling parenting or workplace stress along with therapy for mood disorders like bipolar and depression. Practical exercises, real-time skill practice, and homework are common parts of the process.
She conducts sessions in English and accepts international clients through her practice. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Katherine Uses ACT, CBT, and DBT Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most to a person and taking small actions that align with those values. It can help when anger leads to avoidance or when someone wants more purposeful responses to stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It helps identify thinking patterns that escalate frustration and teaches concrete strategies to shift responses in the moment.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies practical emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. These tools are useful for managing intense reactions, keeping conversations calmer, and reducing impulsive responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to compare methods, try exercises, and adjust based on what fits the client’s goals and lifestyle. That collaborative process helps clarify whether short-term skill work or deeper exploration is more useful.
