Getting to know Kathleen Foss

Hi there, I'm Kathleen! Are you feeling like you're having a hard time and need help navigating moving forward? Do you have a situation that you just need help working through? I have extensive experience working with clients who fall under these categories and many other situations with anxiety, depression, family issues, behavioral issues, ADHD, etc. I am here to help! My focus I like to work with clients who are motivated for change, incorporating goals from sessions into day-to-day life and being able to explore what has worked and what does not work. Having anxiety and depression and other struggles can be a barrier, and trying to work through these is an important part of change. My approach I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. I like to meet the client where they are at incorporating mindfulness, strength-based, and solution-focused approaches to help build coping skills and reach clients' goals. My communication style I think it is important to have clear and open communication about what is working and what is not working. Being able to practice clear communication skills helps to build a healthy therapeutic rapport. I do keep an empathetic mind set with working with clients and understanding where they are at in their journey to healing. My journey to mental healthcare I have known from a young age that I wanted to help others. I got my master's degree from Salem State College in Massachusetts. I have worked in many areas from youth, adults, domestic violence, substance abuse, school settings, outreach and behavioral settings. I have worked with agencies, schools and for myself since I was out of school in 2000. My goals for you Setting goals together is important and helpful. Being able to talk about and be held accountable for the process helps in the journey of counseling.
