About Kathleen
Kathleen M Curran is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 31 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, and major life changes. Kathleen focuses on social anxiety and phobia among other specific worries clients name.
Kathleen keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She listens to what matters most and helps people set clear, manageable steps. Conversations typically look at current feelings, patterns that keep problems going, and small behavior changes to try between meetings.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's lead and build a working connection. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. Those approaches are described simply and used together depending on what a person needs.
Common topics she addresses include panic attacks, isolation or loneliness, problems with communication, control issues, body image struggles, and guilt or shame. People also bring divorce and separation stress, questions about life purpose, and recovery from trauma.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Kathleen notes that the subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following what the person brings to the session, offering responsive listening and direction set by the client's concerns. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through social anxiety, relationship worries, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thoughts related to social situations, testing them with small behavioral experiments, and building coping skills for panic or avoidance. Selecting the best approach is a shared decision. Kathleen will work with the client to identify goals and try methods that fit those goals. That collaborative process can shift as needs change over time. Confirm the exact session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, require less travel, and allow shorter check-ins when time is limited. They can also help people try skill practice between meetings and continue work when life events make in-person visits harder.Areas of expertise
