About Katherine

Katherine Rowe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and problems with self-esteem. Katherine also supports people dealing with addiction, grief, sleep difficulties, relationship challenges, career stress, and family of origin issues.

She writes plainly and uses practical strategies in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on skills that can reduce distress. Sessions look at how patterns from childhood and family life continue to affect decisions, boundaries, and emotional reactions today.

Katherine blends several approaches to match a person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clarify values and take actions that matter. Attachment-Based work looks at early relationship patterns and how they show up now.

Her work also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for people processing disturbing memories. Sessions mix talk, skill practice, and simple exercises to build coping capacity.

She has experience supporting veterans, military service members, and parents concerned about an acting-out teenager. Katherine offers services in English and accepts international clients.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when unwanted thoughts or feelings show up. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, and then trying concrete experiments to change them. This approach often helps with depression, sleep trouble, and low self-esteem.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and expectations. It can help people understand patterns from their family of origin and work on building healthier ways of relating to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katherine will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision can shift over time as new issues come up.

The biography does not specify which session formats are provided, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and can allow shorter check-ins or sessions that fit around work and caregiving. It also lets people choose quieter surroundings, use a phone if bandwidth is limited, or avoid being on camera for part of a session.
