About Kathleen
Kathleen Sutton is an LCPC and LPC licensed in Nevada with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, trauma and abuse, relationship and family problems, and life changes. Kathleen also focuses on issues such as caregiving stress, codependency, body image, grief, addiction, ADHD, and aging.
She brings a strengths-based, client-centered approach and uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-informed work. Sessions often include talk therapy combined with mindfulness and somatic techniques to help people name and shift difficult emotions. Kathleen also integrates expressive art methods when helpful, and she provides psychoeducation to support self-regulation and everyday practices.
Her background includes work in residential treatment, outpatient group practice, correctional settings, assisted living, and community art therapy programs. Prior to clinical practice she spent years as a parenting coach and educator, which informs her work with parents and caregiving concerns. She has experience supporting people across a wide age range in varied settings.
In sessions Kathleen focuses on building an authentic therapeutic relationship and on concrete steps people can take to feel more grounded. She helps clients notice painful patterns, practice new responses, and develop practical coping tools. She also attends to somatic experiences when trauma or high stress has affected the body.
People can expect practical conversation, guided mindfulness practices, and expressive activities when appropriate. The therapist uses language and examples that are straightforward, and she helps clients identify small, manageable changes that fit daily life.
How Emotion-Focused and Attachment Work Online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people pay attention to the feelings that shape their relationships and patterns. It focuses on naming emotions, tracking interaction cycles, and creating new ways of responding when emotions run high. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and values-guided action so people can move toward what matters despite hard feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current relationships and helps people understand and shift those patterns. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kathleen will collaborate with clients to choose which methods to use based on needs, goals, and preferences. Early sessions often include checking how an approach feels and adjusting the focus as therapy continues. Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, and let people access therapeutic tools from wherever they are. Video visits support face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, while phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth or visual attention is limited. The therapist will discuss practical options so sessions can match daily rhythms and responsibilities.Areas of expertise
