Kathryn Powers

Kathryn Powers

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with a Master of Social Work from Walden University, which I earned in 2021. I have over five years of experience providing mental health services in both community health and school-based settings, with a primary focus on supporting children and adolescents.

For the past five years, I have worked as a school-based mental health provider across elementary, middle, and high school settings. Through this experience, I have had the opportunity to work with young people experiencing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and difficulties with emotional regulation and coping. I am certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and incorporate evidence-based approaches while tailoring treatment to each client's individual needs, developmental level, and strengths.

My goal is to help children and adolescents understand themselves more fully, develop healthy coping and communication skills, and recognize the strengths they already possess. I believe meaningful therapeutic progress begins with feeling safe enough to be yourself.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Tacoma

Searching for therapists in Tacoma starts with finding care that matches what you want to work on and how you prefer to talk through it. Tacoma therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match your needs. A bio can help you see whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or other forms of counseling in Tacoma.

Tacoma has a range of therapy options across neighborhoods like Hilltop, Proctor, Stadium District, and nearby areas, with virtual care adding more flexibility beyond local office locations. If your schedule varies, a therapist with evening, weekend, or virtual appointments may fit better than one with a fixed in-person schedule. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can give you a clearer sense of communication style, session structure, and what the therapist focuses on in care.

Therapy in Tacoma can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search Tacoma therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly with therapists who are accepting new patients. You can browse therapists, review bios, and choose a fit based on your needs, schedule, and plan.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
