About Kate
Kate Conochan is a licensed social worker with 15 years of clinical experience. She holds LISW and LCSW credentials and practices in Louisiana. Kate is direct and calm in sessions and aims to help people take practical steps toward clearer goals.
She uses a client-centered approach that puts each person's goals first. Kate works alongside clients to clarify what matters to them and to set achievable steps. Sessions focus on building a trusting working relationship so people can speak openly and honestly.
Kate has extensive experience with adults facing addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, life changes, and psychotic disorders. She also has experience providing therapy for youth who have been in foster care and for those involved in the juvenile justice system. This background informs how she supports people dealing with complicated histories and attachment concerns.
Her clinical tools include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. Kate adapts techniques to match each person's situation rather than using the same plan for everyone.
Sessions aim to be practical and focused on what matters right now. She helps people break problems into smaller steps, practice new skills, and track progress over time. New clients begin by sharing their concerns so the first sessions can set clear aims.
How therapy approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward them, even when emotions are difficult. It can help with anxiety, depression, and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping strategies. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's own goals and pace, with the therapist providing support and reflection to help people find their way forward.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying options, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed so the plan stays useful and realistic.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to follow up on skills between sessions. Because specific session formats were not listed in the biography, confirm available options before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and frequency to match daily routines and goals, helping therapy stay part of everyday life without forcing major schedule changes.
