01About Kathleen
Kathleen Bass is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 25 years of experience. She works with adults on common worries like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting strain, grief, and struggles with addiction or anger. She takes a direct, practical approach that focuses on what a person wants to change now.
Her sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. She listens first, then helps set clear steps people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Treatments are adjusted to each person's situation and comfort level rather than following a rigid script. She draws on methods that help people notice patterns in thinking and behavior, and then experiment with new ways of responding. Kathleen also uses short-term, solution-focused techniques to build momentum and tackle pressing problems quickly.
People who come to her often want help with communication problems, feelings of abandonment or shame, trouble with impulsivity, or midlife and career questions. She also has experience supporting veterans and addressing panic, post-traumatic stress, and bipolar-related concerns in a counseling context. Sessions are offered in English and can be arranged in formats that fit different schedules.
Kathleen frames therapy as a partnership, guiding practical steps while respecting each person’s pace and choices.

04Online support
Practical approaches for online counseling
Kathleen commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors to change feelings and results; it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete steps and strengths people already have to create quick improvements and forward momentum.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Kathleen will review your goals and preferences, suggest options, and adjust the plan as you try strategies together. The emphasis is on what produces useful change for you rather than on a single method chosen in advance.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let you have a face-to-face conversation from wherever you are. Phone sessions can be a good option when video isn’t possible or bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, quick problem solving, or when writing feels easier than talking. These formats make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, or travel.
