About Katharine
Katharine St. Aubin is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) in Michigan with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, motivation, and life changes. She also supports people facing addiction, postpartum depression, bipolar disorder, and career or parenting questions.
She approaches sessions with practical, skills-based methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques to explore values and everyday actions.
In a typical meeting she helps a person identify one or two problems to work on that week. That might include tracking anxious thoughts, testing a new behavior, or practicing a short mindfulness exercise. She emphasizes small experiments that fit into busy lives.
Her background includes work with people managing caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and isolation or loneliness. She also addresses communication problems, family stress, and substance use issues alongside mood concerns.
Sessions are practical and goal-focused. The therapist helps clients set clear steps and reviews progress each meeting. People who prefer structured, straightforward approaches often find this style useful.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
CBT focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then testing small changes. That can look like tracking anxious thoughts during the week, trying a short behavioral change, and reviewing results in the next meeting. ACT emphasizes values and actions - noticing what matters, then choosing steps that align with those values even when emotions are strong. Client-centered work prioritizes listening and reflecting so the person can shape goals at their own pace.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will discuss which approaches fit the client's goals and preferences and adapt them over time. The decision is collaborative and based on what helps the person make useful, concrete changes.
The original biography does not list which online formats are offered, so confirm session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, and enable short check-ins when needed. They also allow practicing real-life skills between sessions and reviewing those attempts together during meetings.
