About Kathee

Kathee Foxan is an LCSW practicing in Iowa with 14 years of experience. She describes herself as a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and works with concerns related to mood, anxiety, anger, personality disorder symptoms, and other life stressors.

She has spent much of her career in community mental health. She also has experience providing therapy in nursing home settings over the last six years. Her caseload has included people across the lifespan, from young children to older adults.

Kathee often works with people facing additional hardships such as poverty, substance use and addiction, legal involvement, and loss of independence. She has supported people who have experienced trauma and those living with chronic health or caregiving challenges.

Her practice includes a mix of clinical approaches. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She also integrates client-centered techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, EMDR, and mindfulness tools when appropriate.

Sessions focus on concrete skills, clearer thinking, and practical steps to manage symptoms and everyday problems. People who choose to work with her can expect structured work on thoughts, emotions, and behaviors alongside coping skills for stress, sleep, relationships, and addiction-related concerns.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

CBT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It focuses on practical exercises, activity scheduling, and short experiments to change how problems are managed. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a collaborative connection, allowing people to set the pace and goals for sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can be practiced between appointments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will review goals and try methods that fit the person’s situation. That may mean focusing on thought records and behavior experiments one week, and on skills practice or trauma processing the next. The plan is adjusted based on progress and preference.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. It also lets people use techniques at home between meetings and bring real-life situations into session for coaching and problem solving.
