I'm Kate Hutchens, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience. As a lesbian-identifying therapist, I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds facing a wide range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, grief and loss, women’s issues, parenting, and special-needs parenting. I also support those exploring their sexuality or gender identity, as well as individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+, pansexual, sexually fluid, polyamorous, or gender non-binary. My priority is to create a safe, affirming space where clients can find support, understanding, healing, and personal growth.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Boston University, and I practice an integrative therapeutic approach that draws from person-centered therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, feminist, and humanistic theories. I believe in a flexible, collaborative approach that honors each client’s unique needs and lived experiences.
I understand being stuck in painful patterns or past experiences can feel isolating. I view therapy as a place of exploration, learning, & growth to reconnect with parts of oneself that may be struggling. This is your journey. My role is to honor it, bear witness, & gently guide you along the way, empowering you to do the meaningful work of change & healing.

Insomnia therapy is a tailored form of treatment that addresses chronic sleep disturbances, which can include problems with falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restorative sleep. The goal of Insomnia therapy is to enhance sleep quality, establish healthy sleep routines, and, in turn, improve an individual’s overall well-being by mitigating and reducing the adverse effects of persistent sleep deprivation.
Insomnia therapy combines therapeutic approaches, with a central focus on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors, integrating techniques like stimulus control, sleep restriction, and relaxation training. Thriveworks Franklin therapists will also emphasize sleep hygiene education and may include mindfulness and relaxation exercises to improve sleep quality, equipping individuals with effective strategies to enhance their sleep and overall well-being.
Common symptoms of insomnia include:
Symptoms of insomnia often look different for everyone; however, there are some warning signs that can signal the need for insomnia therapy. These include feeling anxious about bedtime, bedtimes getting later and later, energy peaking at night rather than during the day, and drastic caffeine consumption in order to stay awake.
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is one of the most effective forms of therapy for treating insomnia, working to modify sleep-disrupting thoughts and behaviors through strategies like sleep hygiene and sleep restriction.
Insomnia therapy at Thriveworks Franklin is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The duration of insomnia therapy can vary based on the individual’s needs and progress in treatment. Typically, it involves a short series of sessions over a few weeks to a couple of months, with the number and length of sessions decided in consultation with the therapist. Some experience better sleep within this time, while others choose longer therapy to address complex sleep issues or maintain good sleep habits.
Many people start to see improvements in their sleep patterns after about two to three weeks of CBT-I. However, the duration and effectiveness will differ for everyone, so don’t worry if it takes a bit longer to have a strong effect.
Sleep disorders can become very problematic. It can be a symptom of depression or anxiety. It can also simply be a result of someone having a too-busy schedule and too much to think about. However, if the lack of sleep continues for a period of time, it could lead to serious emotional and/or thought disorders. Lack of sleep can contribute to an inability to focus leading to an increase of accidents, a significant decrease in problem solving skills and judgment, and impaired of short-term memory.
If you are struggling with sleep disorders or other sleep problems, reach out to Thriveworks Franklin for help. We can get you scheduled with a sleep disorder counselor right away. We’re here to help.
The best approach is for a medical professional, who can prescribe medication, to work in conjunction with a therapist. A therapist can help develop routines before and while going to bed that will increase the probability of sleep. Such a routine may include:
If you do wake up in the middle of the night, as many do, there are some tips to try:
These are only a sample of techniques that may help. Seeking a professional counselor can help you select a routine that works best for you.

They can help you develop a plan to address sleep disorders that would be tailor-made for each individual person.
