Edna (Kathleen) Clark

Hello, I'm Kathleen Clark and I look forward to working with you! Over the past 15 years, I have successfully guided clients in the achievement of emotional well-being and personal growth in the areas of A.D.D./A.D.H.D., Anxiety, Stress, Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders, Low Self-esteem, Life Transitions, Grief and Loss, Abuse, Trauma, and P.T.S.D. I will provide a confidential, compassionate, and non-judgmental atmosphere in which you can safely express and explore your thoughts, feelings, and emotions at your own pace. We will develop a strong therapeutic relationship and will work collaboratively to set achievable goals, and to identify, and explore underlying factors contributing to your challenges. While I focus on providing education, guidance, and support, you will gain valuable assets such as insights, coping techniques, self-management skills, effective interpersonal and communication skills, anxiety and trauma desensitization, a sense of self, hope and resilience, and a sense of empowerment to make and maintain meaningful changes in your life. I earned a Bachelor and Master of Social Work and maintain licenses in both Ohio and Tennessee. To provide you with customized care according to your unique journey, I combine a holistic perspective, with elements drawn from evidence-based practices such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Exposure Therapy, Exposure and Response Prevention, Emotions Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), Somatic Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I am committed to staying up to date with the latest research and therapeutic techniques to provide you with the best possible care and continually engage in ongoing professional development to ensure this goal. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you in your pursuit of a happier and more fulfilling life. Sincerely, Edna (Kathleen) Clark, BSW, MSW, LISW-S, LCSW
