About Kathy

Kathy Maddox is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with ten years of professional experience. She focuses on relationship, family and parenting concerns, along with anger and coping with life changes. Kathy also works with issues such as panic attacks, isolation, and guilt and shame.

Kathy centers sessions on what each person brings and on real strengths they already have. She treats people as the experts on their own stories and helps them name practical steps forward. Conversations are direct and simple, focused on manageable changes rather than abstract ideas.

She has experience supporting people through separation and divorce, control and communication problems, and challenges tied to caregiving or chronic illness. Kathy also helps people facing midlife questions, money stress, and concerns about body image or abandonment. Panic disorder and panic attacks are specifically noted among her focus areas.

Kathy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and prefers clear, goal-oriented work. She helps clients break problems into smaller parts and practice skills between sessions. Progress is checked in straightforward ways so people can see what is changing and what still needs work.

Practical barriers are addressed openly. Kathy recognizes that starting therapy can feel risky, so she offers guidance on what a first session looks like and how to get started. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English.

How therapeutic methods translate to online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to help people address specific problems and build skills. One common approach focuses on learning practical skills to reduce panic and manage anxiety symptoms. Sessions teach breathing and grounding exercises plus step-by-step exposure strategies that help people face feared situations in small, doable steps. Another approach emphasizes problem-solving and communication skills for relationships and parenting. This method breaks down conflicts into clear parts, teaches concrete ways to change interactions, and practices new phrases or behaviors in session so people can try them between appointments. Finding the best approach is collaborative. Kathy will discuss options, try approaches that fit the client’s needs and goals, and adjust based on what works. She treats the first few sessions as a time to figure out the right methods and pace for each person. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday break, avoid travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when needed. Licensed professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care and to practice real-life skills between meetings.
