01About Kathryn

Kathryn Dunleavy brings 23 years of experience in mental health to her work. She holds LPCC and has practiced across inpatient, partial, outpatient, crisis residential, and community settings. Kathryn focuses on practical, relatable support that helps people move through pain toward steadier days.

She uses a mix of approaches to meet each person where they are. Sessions emphasize listening without judgment, helping people reframe thoughts, and building on strengths already present.

Background and approach

Kathryn guides clients through grief, anxiety, depression, stress, addiction concerns, and challenges around intimacy and relationships. Her background includes substantial work with co-occurring mental health and substance use programs. That experience informs how she approaches complex problems like trauma, compassion fatigue, and family-of-origin issues.

Kathryn also addresses difficulties such as abandonment, attachment struggles, communication problems, and eating or sleeping concerns. In sessions she leans into Client-Centered Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. She focuses on clear, doable steps - small changes that build momentum.

Kathryn aims to create a space where people can lower shame, practice self-compassion, and try new ways of coping. People who prefer straightforward, compassionate guidance tend to find her style a good fit. She works with individuals in Minnesota and offers care in English through several online formats.

Her approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

04Online support

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance. The therapist follows each person's pace, offering empathy and reflection to help people feel heard and clarify what matters most. This approach can be useful for stress, low mood, and problems rooted in shame or low self-esteem.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape relationship patterns and personal responses. It helps people identify core feelings, shift unhelpful patterns, and build stronger emotional connection to themselves and others. EFT is often helpful for intimacy-related issues and attachment concerns.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. Short exercises and steady practice can improve sleep, lower anxiety, and support recovery from trauma or addiction triggers.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kathryn will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to try based on goals, preferences, and what helps most in early sessions. She adjusts the plan over time so therapy stays useful and realistic.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people meet face-to-face without travel, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, live chat helps with brief check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options provide flexibility and consistent ways to follow up on progress with a licensed professional.
