About Kathleen
Kathleen Sutton welcomes people who want clearer direction, more confidence, and help coping with big life changes. She uses straightforward listening and practical tools to help clients notice what matters and take small, steady steps forward. Kathleen has 11 years of clinical experience and holds LCPC and LPC credentials.
Kathleen blends talk therapy with body-aware work and creative expression. Sessions often include grounding skills, emotion regulation techniques, and simple exercises that help people name feelings and try new ways of responding.
How Kathleen works
She also offers art-based activities for those who like doing as well as talking. Her approach is rooted in a strengths-based, client-centered stance. That means she focuses on what is already working for a person and builds from there.
Kathleen aims to create an authentic connection so people feel heard and respected as they make changes. She brings experience from clinics, residential centers, assisted living, and community art therapy programs. That background informs how she supports people facing trauma, grief, burnout, and the stress of caregiving or aging.
Kathleen also helps with anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction concerns, and relationship or family issues from an individual perspective. Practical skills and learning are part of the work when helpful. Kathleen offers psychoeducation, mindfulness practices, and somatic tools to aid self-regulation and resilience.
She encourages small, achievable steps and supports people as they practice new habits between sessions.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, then choose actions that align with values to build a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thought patterns and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an accepting, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and reflects what a person is experiencing to support their own problem solving.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Kathleen will collaborate with each person to decide whether ACT, CBT, client-centered methods, or a mix fits best based on goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions stay practical and relevant to what the person needs right now.
Online therapy offers flexibility and many practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided exercises. Phone sessions work well for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use writing and quick prompts to track progress. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules while still using skills, mindfulness, and creative exercises adapted for remote care.
