About Kathleen
LMHC in New York with 12 years of clinical experience, Kathleen McGlynn helps people manage addictions, anger, depression, grief, and trauma. She also works with clients on parenting strains, career concerns, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. Kathleen uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide her sessions. She conducts work in English and is not taking international clients.
Kathleen keeps sessions focused and practical. She listens to what matters most and uses that as the starting point for conversation. With client-centered methods she follows the person's lead and pays attention to their priorities. With CBT she helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tests small behavior changes to see what works.
Her approach is to create a straightforward treatment plan together. That plan can include short-term strategies for managing anger, relapse prevention for addictions, or step-by-step coping skills for mood symptoms. Kathleen also addresses related issues such as hoarding, obsessions or compulsions, paranoia, intellectual disability considerations, and challenges tied to HIV/AIDS when they come up.
Sessions look at real-life problems and practical next steps. Progress is tracked through small, measurable changes rather than abstract promises. People who choose her often want a clear, conversational style that connects therapy to everyday tasks and decisions.
To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Kathleen Uses Client-Centered Work and CBT Online
Client-Centered Therapy in Kathleen's practice emphasizes following the client's agenda. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps the person clarify what matters most. This approach supports people who need space to sort out feelings, decide priorities, or set personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. CBT is often used for depression, anxiety-related patterns, anger management, and coping strategies for addictions and mood swings. Sessions include practical exercises and behavior plans that can be worked on between meetings.
Choosing an approach is part of the work together. Kathleen will discuss goals, preferences, and daily demands to decide which methods to emphasize. This is a collaborative process that can shift as needs change.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten check-in times when needed, and use audio-only meetings if video would be difficult. Many people find online sessions help them keep consistent appointments and practice skills in the context of everyday life.
