About Kathleen
Kathleen Bass is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with people who want help around stress, anxiety, relationship problems, parenting strain, anger, depression, addictions, grief, and intimacy-related concerns.
She helps people tackle communication problems, control issues, and challenges that follow separation or divorce. Kathleen also addresses feelings such as guilt, shame, abandonment, isolation, and struggles with life purpose. Her practice includes work on impulsivity, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and issues faced by veterans and those in the armed forces.
In sessions she uses cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to structure conversations. That means she helps clients test thoughts that fuel intense reactions and identifies practical steps to try between meetings. Sessions focus on specific problems and small, manageable changes rather than long, open-ended discussion.
Kathleen adapts the pace and content of sessions to the person in front of her. She listens for patterns that keep anger and resentment replaying, then helps develop different responses. Work may include changing unhelpful thinking, practicing new communication habits, and setting clear boundaries.
Her approach aims to reduce the everyday interference of anger and related stress. Kathleen draws on a long practice history to offer straightforward strategies, and she helps people weigh options and pick what fits their life.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. Kathleen uses CBT to help people find and test unhelpful thoughts that feed anger and anxiety, and to practice alternative responses that reduce flare-ups.Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, practical changes and clear goals. It helps people identify what is already working, set short-term targets, and track small improvements in communication and stress management.
Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss the methods above and decide together which mix fits a person’s concerns, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision can change as needs evolve.
The profile does not specify which online formats are used, so confirm available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday or work break, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a longer appointment is not possible. These practical benefits help people try new communication skills and coping strategies without major disruption to daily life.
