Kathryn Newman, LSCSW, LCAC

Outpatient Therapist

Chanute, KS


I enjoy helping individuals and families learn skills to manage symptoms and stressors and access their strengths to succeed in reaching goals. I want them to feel comfortable and confident in accessing treatment for mental health as easily as they would for any physical health need. I’m excited to be a part of this team which is doing so much to break down the stigma and get individuals the help they need to realize their dreams.
