I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in private practice located in Manteca, CA. I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Holy Names College in Oakland, CA. Experiencing this profession as a healing art has impacted my faith in client's transformational change.

My relationship with the practice of psychotherapy has grown from wonderment during the earlier years, to outright joy in these present times.

First session

In the first session clients can expect to express their hopes and expectations for their desired achievements with therapy sessions.

Strengths

In my 25 years of experience working with clients I find values in being a good listener, nonjudgmental, having a good memory and working well with all ages, ethnicities and backgrounds. The experienced gained from years of practice has impacted the ease in which care is given and received, and treatment plans are formulated.

Ideal clients

I have worked most often with clients who report anxiety/depression in their lives. What I like most in working with anxiety/depression is strategically collaborating with clients as they find their way back to wellness and positive functionality.

Treatment methods

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

In practicing outcome achievement with SFBT with clients who want to change their lives for a better future this treatment method has proven to be highly effective.

Kathleen's honesty and grounded energy was apparent at the beginning of our first session. She is very intuitive and has a way of positively mirroring back my strengths even while I'm sharing my pain. She's very insightful. I felt extremely empowered by her. I'm grateful to have found her.

I’ve seen a few therapists in my adult life and this has been the best experience yet. Thank you so much for really listening to me.
