Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
I take a coaching approach to career counseling. My belief is that I am the expert on specific career development tools, and YOU are the expert on you. I defer to your expertise on you to help us discover the direction in which we will develop your career portfolio. Note: I didn't say career path. It is a rare thing that our way forward is straight or clear. Coaching offers a space to develop your skills, identify possibilities, and develop flexibility, resilience, and insight to take advantage of the right opportunity at the right time. Together we can explore your values, your strengths, your character, your growth orientation, and your definition of success to create a strategy for career growth.

Psychologist, Psy.D
High-performing executives often develop beliefs about success, failure, and responsibility that once served them well but now run automatically. Together, we identify these patterns so you can recognize them—and make choices instead of letting them make choices for you.
Defusion, a skill from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), helps you observe thoughts rather than automatically believe them. Instead of letting self-critical thoughts drive your reactions, you learn to respond with greater clarity, flexibility, and confidence under pressure.
We begin with the challenge in front of you—the difficult conversation, the decision you’re avoiding, or the pressure you can’t release. Then we explore the deeper patterns those situations may activate. Understanding that connection is often where lasting change begins.
For some clients, therapy is complemented by formal psychological assessment using tools such as the PAI, Rorschach, or cognitive testing. The goal isn’t simply a report—it’s a clearer understanding that guides more effective therapy and a personalized path forward.

Montgomery is Alabama's state capital and a city with profound civil rights significance — the birthplace of the bus boycott, home to the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church, and site of the National Memorial for Peace and Justice — and this history creates a distinctive clinical context in which racial identity, community trauma, and intergenerational resilience are active themes. The city has a majority Black population and a state government workforce, generating therapy demand that spans from the particular stresses of public service careers to the cultural and emotional dimensions of living in a place where the history of racism is physically present. Baptist Health and Jackson Hospital provide institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community. Alabama State University and Faulkner University contribute to the local training ecosystem, and the city's strong faith community means spiritually integrated therapy is an important part of the local offering.
