About Katherine
Katherine Treadway is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina who helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, trauma, and relationship strain. She centers practical support and steady, respectful listening for parents who feel overwhelmed or stuck. Her work often focuses on restoring energy, managing emotions, and finding clearer routines at home.
She uses a mix of approaches to meet real-life needs. Sessions include skill practice, problem-solving, and time to name what feels hard.
Background and approach
Katherine draws on tools from cognitive behavior methods to shift unhelpful thinking and on acceptance-based ideas to build tolerance for tough feelings. Her practice pays attention to family patterns and the impact of past hurt. That can mean tracking where old reactions show up in parenting or daily life.
She also supports people coping with compassion fatigue, first responder stress, and workplace burnout. Over four years as a licensed clinician she has worked with a range of adults, including veterans and first responders, and people juggling career and family demands. Katherine explains clinical terms plainly and helps clients choose goals they care about.
In sessions she mixes short-term strategies with deeper work on values and relationships. People can expect clear steps between meetings and suggestions to try at home. The aim is steadier days, better communication, and more manageable routines for parents and individuals.

How her approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite uncomfortable feelings. It can be useful for parents who want steadier reactions and clearer priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on testing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and homework. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stress management.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what has worked before, then recommend methods to try together. Plans are adjusted over time so techniques match the client’s pace and needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video lets people work face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Chat and messaging are useful for brief questions, skill reminders, or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and busy days.
