Getting to know Kathryn Stengel
Hi there, I'm Kathryn!
I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist based in Concord, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults of all ages, specializing in transitions or those wanting to make changes in their lives who may need assistance identifying and navigating barriers or aligning their thoughts and behaviors with their value systems.
My approach
I am a huge proponent of Motivational Interviewing, asking many questions with the belief that the power and motivation to change is within you. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify what is standing in the way of making these changes, whether within yourself or your environment.
My focus
Most clients who come to me have been engaged in some form of mental health care for much of their lives or are at least familiar with the process. If you're new to therapy, I welcome that too! Anxiety and depression are very common among my clients, and I am also comfortable treating Substance Use Disorders and individuals with Severe Mental Illness who are looking to increase daily functioning.
My communication style
I want to know about you! I take a client-centered approach, asking many questions to understand what you are feeling and why. Ultimately, it is your experience that matters, and I am here to help you navigate your life and provide insight if you are open to it.
My journey to mental healthcare
I began my career as a Sociologist, interested in systems and how they affect individual and group behavior. I transitioned to Social Work and Therapy after earning my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California because I believe all people have the capacity to live the lives they want but may face hurdles that feel insurmountable on their own.
