About Kathleen

Kathleen M Curran is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 31 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, depression, and life changes. She also addresses concerns like body image, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, panic attacks, PTSD, and social anxiety.

Kathleen uses Client-Centered Therapy to make space for each person's concerns and to follow what matters most to them in session. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for practical steps to change patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going.

In sessions she listens and then helps people shape concrete next steps. That may include trying small behavior changes, testing different ways of thinking about a situation, or practicing conversations to improve communication. She avoids jargon and aims for plain talk that people can use between visits.

The work is collaborative: she brings methods and experience, and the client brings their priorities and life context. Many people come for help sorting guilt and shame, or for support after relationship or life transitions.

To begin, clients use a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Payment is handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and provided from her Texas practice.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy is about listening closely to what matters to the person and shaping sessions around their priorities. It helps people feel heard and decide which issues to work on first, such as guilt, relationship strain, or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. It includes practical exercises and steps to test new ways of thinking, which can help with anxiety, panic attacks, and low mood.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. Kathleen will discuss methods and we will pick what fits your goals and preferences. That makes sessions collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins on days that are hectic, and remove travel time. Therapists often find that using focused exercises and homework between sessions helps progress when meeting remotely.
