Kathleen is kind and funny - and also encouraging while challenging me. Sensitive to my personal needs and a patient listener and facilitator. I also appreciate her flexibility and evening availability. Highly recommend and so grateful to have found Better Help and her! #TeamKathleen!

So far, I feel very confident with her experience and follow up with me. She checks in periodically to keep updated and I feel that’s beneficial. She has given me tools to implement outside of counseling. I would highly recommend!

I really enjoyed working with Kathleen. She helps me not to feel guilty about my sons death and to understand that I did my best.
She listens, understands and cares. I've had therapy before but I've never had a therapist that reached out to me weekly after our sessions to offer strength and encouragement.
Thank you so much Kathleen!!
