About Kathleen

Kathleen Schober is an LCSW with 14 years of clinical experience based in Connecticut who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship strain, addiction, grief, trauma, and life transitions.

Background and approach

She approaches each person with warmth, respect, and a touch of humor while helping them build practical skills to manage symptoms, improve relationships, and navigate major changes. Her work also addresses self-esteem, anger, career concerns, bipolar challenges, and a range of additional issues including hoarding, codependency, and women's concerns.

Her training includes a master's degree and a variety of clinical settings that inform her practice, such as outpatient substance use treatment, elderly psychiatric support, emergency room crisis intervention, and independent practice. Kathleen blends client-centered listening with evidence-informed techniques like cognitive behavioral strategies and solution-focused interventions, tailoring the mix to what a client needs in the moment.

She encourages collaboration and steady progress, supporting clients as they explore values, set goals, and develop coping tools for lasting change.

Approaches and Online Access for Practical Change



Kathleen draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathic listening and building a strong collaborative relationship so clients feel heard and supported while exploring their values and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress and introduces concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and she emphasizes collaboration in tailoring methods to each person's priorities and preferences. Together clients and therapist assess what is helping, what needs to change, and which strategies feel most useful over time rather than assuming a single method from the start.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options allow people to engage from home or work, fit sessions into busy schedules, and maintain continuity of care during life transitions. The variety of formats supports different communication styles and practical needs so therapy can be both accessible and adaptable.
