KF Portrait of Kathee Foxan

Kathee Foxan

Compassionate evidence-based care for complex needs

About Kathee

Kathee Foxan brings a client-centered orientation grounded in evidence-based techniques to help people manage mood, anxiety, trauma, addiction, and related concerns.

Background and approach

As an LCSW practicing in Iowa for 14 years, she blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with trauma-focused methods and EMDR to address symptoms such as depression, anger, bipolar mood challenges, and sleep or intimacy-related difficulties.

She has experience working with individuals across a wide age span and has supported those coping with grief, caregiving strain, chronic illness, codependency, and the stressors that follow life changes.

Foxan’s background includes long-term work in community mental health and providing therapeutic care in nursing home settings, which has informed her approach to complex needs like co-morbidity, dissociation, and compassion fatigue. She frames therapy around each person’s strengths while offering practical skills from DBT and mindfulness to improve emotion regulation and coping.

Kathee holds LCSW credentials and draws on a combination of supportive, skills-based, and trauma-focused interventions to help clients pursue clearer goals and greater daily functioning.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Healing



Kathee commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR when working with trauma, mood, and anxiety-related concerns. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning, while EMDR uses structured processing to reduce the lingering impact of distressing memories and traumatic experiences. She also incorporates client-centered principles to keep sessions focused on each person’s values and goals, creating space for collaboration and individualized pacing.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help assess needs, try strategies, and adjust methods based on the client’s goals and preferences, so treatment evolves collaboratively rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.

Online therapy expands access through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing for flexibility in scheduling and communication style. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy lives and changing circumstances, while still enabling licensed professionals to deliver structured interventions, skills training, and trauma-focused work in an accessible way.
