About Katherine

Katherine Mcglynn is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Wisconsin with 18 years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, family concerns, and major life changes. Katherine also addresses compassion fatigue and related strains that come from caregiving or high-pressure roles.

She focuses on practical conversation and clear steps. Sessions often look at what is happening now and what changes might help reduce pressure at home or work. Katherine uses methods that encourage motivation and practical problem solving when people feel stuck.

Her background includes long-term clinical work with people facing relationship tensions, divorce or separation, chronic pain, illness, and disability. She also supports people handling guilt, shame, money problems, and challenges around forgiveness and self-regard. Workplace stress and women’s issues are part of her practice focus as well.

In session she helps clients identify small, manageable goals and the next steps toward them. She draws on approaches that center on strengths, internal parts of the self, and short-term solution building. This can make conversations feel focused and useful rather than open-ended.

Her style is direct and respectful. She aims to help people talk through communication problems, practice new ways of handling conflict, and find ways to cope with ongoing life demands. Katherine works in English and accepts international clients when appointments and licensing allow.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to build motivation for steps like reducing substance use or changing daily routines.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, practical goals. Sessions target what will look different when things improve and identify immediate next steps that feel doable.

Internal Family Systems looks at the different parts of a person’s inner experience. It can help when guilt, shame, or inner conflict gets in the way of making changes or improving relationships.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Katherine will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will try methods suited to the issue at hand. That gives room to adjust if something is not fitting well.

The therapist biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid commuting. It also allows people to connect from different locations when international scheduling and licensing permit.
