More about Kathia

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

Hello, and welcome!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York State, with over 4 years of professional experience supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds and across the lifespan. My clinical experience includes working with veterans, individuals experiencing homelessness, children in assessment settings, and older adults. I have also worked as an Emergency Room clinician and in both inpatient and outpatient settings, providing support to individuals navigating a variety of life challenges.

I specialize in helping individuals manage stress and anxiety, cope with depression and substance use challenges, and navigate major life transitions. My therapeutic approach is person-centered and collaborative, incorporating talk therapy and solution-focused techniques to help clients identify their strengths, develop effective coping strategies, and work toward meaningful change. I believe therapy should be tailored to each individual's unique needs, experiences, and goals.

I am committed to treating every individual with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable expressing yourself, exploring challenges, and working toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I commend you for taking that step. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you along your journey toward growth, healing, and emotional well-being.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
