About Kate

Kate Conochan is an independently licensed social worker, licensed in Ohio (LISW) and Louisiana (LCSW), with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, grief, and ADHD.

Her background includes work with youth and adults across several settings. She has supported children involved in foster care and the juvenile justice system, and she has spent much of her time working with adults who struggle with addiction, psychotic disorders, and mood concerns. That range informs how she approaches common, messy life problems.

She uses a client-centered style. That means she helps clients set their own goals and works alongside them at their pace. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and problem solving for everyday strain.

Her clinical tools include techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness practices. Those methods are used to address symptoms like worry, low mood, trauma responses, and difficulties with intimacy or trust.

Kate emphasizes building an honest working relationship so people can speak freely about what matters to them. She aims to make the first appointments straightforward and useful, helping clients begin to make immediate, manageable changes.

BHow sessions work

Therapeutic approaches for online sessions

Kate often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and committing to action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear; it can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation. CBT looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches specific skills to reduce symptoms like worry and low mood.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes working together and following the client’s goals. In practice this means the therapist listens, reflects, and helps shape steps that fit the person’s life rather than imposing a fixed plan.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and the problems you want to address, then recommend approaches to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as work progresses.

The biography does not specify exact online formats, so confirm session options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they fit into work or family schedules, make it easier to keep regular appointments, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the available formats and how they might be scheduled to match daily routines.
