Kathryn Tajchman , LSCSW

Kathryn Tajchman approaches therapy from a place of encouragement, helping people recognize their inherent worth and build confidence through life’s challenges. She guides adults to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns that no longer serve their goals, and concentrates on what is within each person’s control so responses become less reactive and more intentional.

Kathryn integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques to create practical, goal-oriented work that fits each person’s situation. She also holds an LSCSW, which stands for Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker, and is certified in maternal mental health to support pregnant and postpartum women as well as fathers.

She specializes in helping adults navigating transitional life stages such as grief and loss, divorce, and becoming a parent, and she addresses issues including stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and depression. Kathryn draws on lived experience as a parent of four adult children and on a rural upbringing on a dairy farm in Kansas to bring perspective and empathy to her work. She looks forward to supporting individuals as they discover strengths, develop coping skills, and move toward their goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support

Kathryn often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is practical and can reduce persistent worry, low mood, and reactive patterns. She also employs Solution-Focused techniques that concentrate on strengths, goals, and small, actionable steps to create forward movement during transitions such as divorce, grief, or new parenthood. In addition, her maternal mental health certification informs sensitive, targeted support for pregnant and postpartum parents, addressing challenges that arise around pregnancy and early parenting.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Kathryn collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so therapy stays relevant and effective.

Online sessions - whether by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other responsibilities. These options make it easier to connect from home or between commitments, support continuity during life transitions, and allow clients to access licensed professionals in ways that suit their schedules and comfort.
