Kathleen Bass

Kathleen Bass is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 25 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, depression, anger, addictions, grief, and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem. Kathleen also supports people dealing with divorce and separation concerns and other life transitions.

Her approach is direct and practical. Conversations focus on what’s happening now and what can be changed. She listens without judgement and adapts sessions to each person’s needs and goals. Many clients work on clearer communication, managing strong emotions, and restoring daily functioning.

Kathleen uses evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means she helps clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small, manageable changes to test what works. Sessions often include concrete tools for coping with panic, depression, and relationship problems.

She frames therapy as a partnership. Clients set priorities and Kathleen helps build steps toward those aims. Progress is tracked with tasks and real-world practice rather than abstract theory alone.

People who choose Kathleen can expect straightforward conversation, practical strategies, and steady support through difficult decisions. If you are navigating grief, separation, or ongoing anxiety, she aims to help you make clearer choices and find more calm in daily life.

How cognitive and solution-focused work translate to online therapy

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often involves structured exercises, tracking patterns, and practicing new responses to anxiety, panic, or depressive thinking. Solution-Focused Therapy centers on small, practical steps and identifying what already works. It is useful for people wanting quick, goal-driven change and clearer next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each client to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and day-to-day demands. That collaborative planning means techniques can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when needed. It also supports steady follow-up after major events like separation or loss, and lets clients practice skills where they live and work. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and solution-focused exercises for remote sessions so strategies remain practical and actionable.
