About Kathi
Kathi Kennedy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who focuses on parenting concerns alongside a wide range of emotional and life challenges. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy questions, and the everyday strain of parenting. Her approach is warm and practical, aimed at helping people learn new coping skills and make steady progress.
Kathi keeps sessions straightforward and calming. She listens first, then works with clients to set small, achievable goals.
Background and approach
Therapy often includes learning tools for managing strong emotions, building connection, and improving sleep and self-esteem. Sessions move at a pace that feels manageable for each person. Her background includes ten years of clinical practice as an LPC, with experience addressing trauma, substance concerns, and attention-related challenges like ADHD.
She uses several therapeutic methods to match the needs of the person in front of her, rather than relying on a single technique. Kathi draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered approaches among other methods. She guides people to notice unhelpful patterns, try different actions, and clarify what matters most to them.
Practical skill-building is a common focus. People working with Kathi can expect a collaborative tone and down-to-earth guidance. She supports exploration of family issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiving stress, body image and eating-related problems, and the complex emotions that come with change.
Sessions are offered in English and conducted online or by phone.

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting and life challenges
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to identify what matters most to them and take small actions in that direction despite hard thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and making values-based changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, testing them, and practicing alternatives to reduce symptoms like anxiety and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience, with the therapist offering empathic listening and support to help someone find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Kathi will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust as progress is made. The aim is to find practical tools that fit the person's routine and priorities.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy parents and people with tight schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick reflections or between-session contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other commitments while still practicing coping skills and tracking progress.
