About Kathryn
Kathryn Cudd is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 17 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, and depression. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended family tensions, body image, caregiver stress, and forgiveness. Kathryn speaks English and practices in Florida.
Her work focuses on practical conversations and clearer next steps. Sessions look at what keeps difficult feelings alive and what small changes could ease them. She uses straightforward methods rather than jargon, and she pays attention to the real-life demands people face while parenting or caregiving.
Kathryn draws on Client-Centered Therapy to respond to people’s priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools to help change unhelpful thought patterns and manage strong emotions. Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing are used when they fit a person’s goals.
Clients can expect goal-focused sessions that combine listening with practical skills and short-term plans. Kathryn adapts the pace to the person’s concerns, whether working through grief or addressing ongoing anxiety or shame. She aims to make progress understandable and manageable for busy adults.
The first contact involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session. Kathryn notes that fees vary with location and that sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities. It involves listening and responding to what matters most, helping someone set personal goals and decide the pace of work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep pain going and teaches practical skills to shift them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds clear strategies for managing intense emotions and improving coping during crisis or stress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Kathryn will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest methods to try. That plan can change as progress is made or new needs appear, and decisions about technique are collaborative.
Confirm which session formats she currently offers before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. Some formats also make it simpler to focus without being on camera or to use resources and worksheets during the session. Ask about the available session structure when scheduling so arrangements match your routine and goals.
