About Katherine
LCSW in California with five years of experience, Katherine Nies helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, depression, and ADHD. She also focuses on attachment issues, caregiver stress, control struggles, questions about life purpose, and concerns around pregnancy and childbirth. Katherine works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals and take practical steps toward change.
Katherine uses a mix of approaches in session. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice thoughts and commit to values-based actions. Client-Centered Therapy guides sessions that center the person's perspective and priorities. Emotionally-Focused Therapy informs work on relational patterns and attachment concerns.
Sessions also incorporate mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing techniques when helpful. Those methods are used to build awareness, increase willingness to try new behaviors, and strengthen motivation for change. Conversations are aimed at small, achievable steps that fit into everyday life.
Katherine describes her role as a collaborative partner rather than an instructor. She and the client identify priorities, set concrete goals, and review progress over time. She asks practical questions, offers reflective feedback, and helps people translate insights into actions.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and motivation problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client's perspective and priorities; the therapist listens, reflects, and follows what the person considers most important. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on attachment and relational patterns to help people understand emotional responses and change interaction habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Katherine collaborates with clients to identify which methods fit their needs and goals. She reviews progress and adjusts the plan together, using client feedback to guide next steps.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten check-ins, or remove the need to travel. It also lets people use video or phone in ways that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, Client-Centered methods, and Emotionally-Focused techniques to these practical constraints while focusing on clear goals and small action steps.
