About Kathleen
Kathleen Woolum helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She also supports LGBTQ+ people and those dealing with parenting challenges. Kathleen works with concerns around communication problems, divorce and separation, isolation and loneliness, and post-traumatic stress.
She brings a warm, person-centered style to sessions. Kathleen aims to build a respectful relationship where clients feel seen and heard. She focuses on practical skills and clearer communication so people can manage daily challenges more easily.
How Kathleen works
Her work includes support for pregnancy and childbirth concerns, sexuality, and women's issues. Kathleen helps clients identify patterns that keep them stuck and practice different ways of responding. Sessions tend to emphasize real-world changes rather than abstract ideas.
With three years of clinical experience, Kathleen uses an empathic approach that centers each person’s values and identity. She encourages clients to set goals that matter to them and to try small, manageable steps toward those goals. Progress is measured by what helps in day-to-day life.
She asks clients to choose therapy that feels like a good fit and to share feedback openly. Kathleen aims to make therapy a collaborative process where the client’s voice guides the work.

How evidence-based approaches shape online care
There are a few evidence-based therapeutic techniques commonly used to address the concerns Kathleen supports. One approach focuses on building practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching specific strategies to manage overwhelming thoughts and physical reactions so daily tasks feel more doable. Another approach emphasizes improving communication and relationship patterns, helping people practice clearer ways of asking for needs and responding to conflict.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Kathleen will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She encourages feedback and adjusts the plan based on what is helpful in real life rather than sticking to a fixed script.
If you want online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. That will clarify whether the therapist offers video, phone, or other formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during short breaks in the day. Different formats can also help when someone prefers not to use video or needs a quicker, focused session instead of a longer in-person visit.
