About Kathleen
She keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each person. Kathleen builds a plan together with clients and adjusts it as needs change. Her approach draws on attachment work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns, and on cognitive behavioral ideas to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Narrative methods help people tell their story and find new meaning after loss or illness. Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce anxiety and improve sleep by helping to slow racing thoughts. Kathleen blends these ways of working to fit each person's situation rather than using a single method for everyone.
With 19 years of experience and an MA, she brings steady support for complex concerns such as dissociation, codependency, and cancer-related distress. She also addresses aging and geriatric issues, attachment wounds, and family of origin struggles in individual sessions.
Sessions are provided by a Florida-licensed professional who communicates in English. The first step is often a short intake to clarify goals and plan the next steps. Kathleen aims to create a space where people can feel heard and take practical steps forward.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work looks like
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current connections and emotional patterns. It can help people understand why they react strongly in close relationships and learn new ways to feel and relate. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, sleep difficulties, and changing habits that keep problems in place.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they will try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps in real life.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also suit people who need a quieter setting, who prefer not to use video, or who want tools and exercises they can use between meetings. Licensed professionals will work with clients to decide how best to structure sessions that fit day-to-day life.
