About Kathee
Kathee Foxan is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Iowa with 14 years of experience. She focuses on mood and anxiety concerns, anger-related issues, addiction, personality symptoms, and related stressors. She has worked across community mental health and nursing home settings and uses practical therapy approaches to help people manage day-to-day challenges.

Her background includes long-term work in a community mental health center and several years providing therapy to nursing home residents. Over her career she has seen clients ranging from children to people in their nineties. That range has shaped a focus on concrete skills for coping with life changes, loss of independence, and the stresses that come from limited resources.

She brings a pragmatic style that centers on identifying patterns and testing small changes in real life. For readers worried about snapping at loved ones or feeling swallowed by resentment, her practice offers clear, usable strategies.
Her work also includes mindfulness techniques and trauma-focused interventions when needed. People interested in starting a first session are asked to follow the site's online steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Kathee commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small changes in behavior to reduce distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress-related problems. DBT emphasizes concrete skills for regulating emotion, tolerating distress, and improving communication in heated moments.She also draws on Client-Centered principles by listening closely to each person's concerns and adjusting the pace to what feels workable. Choosing which approach to use is collaborative; she will help clients weigh options based on goals, symptoms, and what feels most useful in daily life.
