About Katherine
Katherine Treadway, LCSW, helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and family challenges. She also supports those coping with parenting strain, addiction, grief, mood disorders, and issues related to adoption and foster care.

Her work blends several proven approaches so each plan fits the client.

The therapist uses these methods to address relationship strain, self-esteem problems, and life transitions.
With four years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, Katherine has supported people from varied backgrounds. She has worked with veterans, first responders, and clients facing workplace and identity pressures. That experience informs a practical, grounded style in sessions.
Clients can expect a collaborative pace and concrete practices to use between meetings. Katherine emphasizes honest conversation and steady progress rather than quick fixes. She aims to help people feel more capable, connected, and in control of their next steps.
How her approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking action aligned with those values. It helps when someone feels stuck or unsure of what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at unhelpful thought patterns and offers steps to change thinking and behavior. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and builds through empathic listening and collaboration to strengthen self-understanding and self-direction.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Katherine will work together with clients to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice can change over time as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue care when life events or location changes occur. Licensed professionals adapt tools from ACT, CBT, and client-centered work to help clients practice skills between sessions and make steady progress.
