About Kathleen
Kathleen Bass is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, grief, anger, and substance concerns. Her practice also addresses intimacy-related issues, self-esteem, career questions, and mood disorders such as bipolar concerns.
She focuses on straightforward conversation and practical steps. Sessions are used to clarify what feels most urgent, try small changes, and track what helps. Kathleen draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to structure sessions and set short-term goals.
People meet to talk through communication problems, control and impulsivity struggles, and the aftermath of separation or loss. She also works with issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. There is attention to anger management and panic symptoms when those are part of the presenting problem.
With many years of work in Texas, Kathleen has supported veterans and others coping with trauma and post-traumatic stress. She routinely discusses practical ways to reduce daily stress and improve routines that affect mood and relationships. Language of sessions is English and she accepts international clients.
Her approach is direct and goal oriented. Early sessions usually identify a small set of goals and a few skills to practice between meetings. Over time those steps are adjusted based on what the client reports is helping.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Kathleen uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions focus on breaking unhelpful patterns, testing new behaviors, and tracking results over time. Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical changes that produce quick improvements and builds on what is already working in daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will help clients decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is reported. That collaboration helps focus sessions on measurable steps rather than vague aims.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around parenting and work schedules, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full session is not needed. Some people prefer fewer visual demands, phone check-ins, or short follow-ups to keep momentum. Discussing these practical options is part of the first scheduling steps so sessions fit everyday life.
