Kathleen M. Spencer, LMSW has more than three decades of experience as a Licensed Master Social Worker and has since built her career supporting individuals and families through life’s most difficult seasons. Using modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused care, and family therapy, she brings both clinical expertise and years of experience to Lapeer Christian Counseling. Kate’s work is grounded in helping clients reframe traumatic memories to find a renewed sense of stability and strength.

Get to Know Kate

My style is calm, compassionate, and understanding. I believe therapy should be a safe, collaborative space where you can learn strategies that make life outside of the session more manageable. Whether I’m working with someone healing from trauma, navigating family challenges or transitions, or managing the weight of stress and anxiety, I tailor my care to each person’s unique needs.

On a Personal Note

Outside of my professional life, I enjoy the balance and creativity that come from my favorite hobbies: photography, gardening, and fishing. I also cherish time spent with my family, finding in those relationships the same sense of connection and grounding I encourage in my clients.

I will walk alongside you with steadiness and compassion while helping you uncover your strengths, heal at a pace that feels right for you, and build a life that feels more connected, balanced, and hopeful.
