Couples therapists in Norfolk, VA

As a mental health therapist, I practice in Virginia, Delaware, Florida, and North Carolina, specializing in grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, anger management, and stress associated with life transitions.

Hello, I’m Kathleen Fort, LICSW, LCSW, a psychotherapist with more than 25 years of experience helping adults with ADHD, anxiety, procrastination, overwhelm, and work/life balance challenges.

I specialize in working with intelligent, capable adults who feel stuck despite their best efforts. My approach is warm, direct, and empowering, combining practical strategies with deeper insight to help clients create meaningful, lasting change.

I received my undergraduate degree from Georgetown University and my Master of Social Work from Tulane University with a specialization in mental health.

I am a licensed marriage & family therapist committed to empowering individuals, couples, and families in their process to find healing and growth. I believe that YOU have the power to change your circumstances, you just may need a little help accessing it. I am here to help you feel capable to manage all that life hands you and to achieve your fullest potential.

Choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision. People often come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or tired of talking in circles—and they want real change, not just support. That’s where my work is different.

I am a solution-focused, no-nonsense therapist who believes therapy should be both compassionate and effective. My style is warm, grounded, and direct. I help clients quickly identify what’s truly driving their stress or dissatisfaction, calm emotional overwhelm, and move forward with clarity and confidence.

Clients often tell me they appreciate my ability to be both deeply supportive and refreshingly honest—offering perspective, guidance, and direction while maintaining a safe, respectful space.

Personally, I have a lot of life experience and a naturally positive perspective that helps guide my work and intentional focus. I am a mother of five, married with a blended family, step mother of two, grandmother, an equestrian, boater and aviator.

Educationally, I earned my Master of Social Work from Florida State University in 1991 and Licensed as a Clinical Social Worker in 1994. I have worked in Sports Broadcadting and Marketing, Medical Device Sales, Business and Behavioral Health. I have certifications in Critical Incident Stress Debriefing, Executive Leadership, and Hypnotherapy.

You don't have to carry grief, a breakup, or relationship pain alone. Maybe you're needing help with an important decision or need creative solutions to challenges. In therapy we can make sense of what's happening.

I'm licensed in Virginia and Florida. I have advanced training in Parts Work, trauma treatment, EMDR and couples counseling. I bring a thoughtful, creative, and collaborative approach to therapy. I speak Spanish fluently. También hablo español.

If you’re looking for a therapist who will meet you with warmth, depth, and respect, and work alongside you toward resonance, healing and growth, I invite you to reach out.
