About Kathleen
Kathleen Harrison is a Pennsylvania Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 10 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, low motivation, self-esteem issues, and depression. She also focuses on forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and self-love.
Kathleen keeps therapy straightforward. She listens without judgment and treats each person as an individual rather than following a fixed template. Sessions focus on practical steps and honest conversation to identify what is getting in the way and what matters to the client now.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and daily obstacles. This can include helping people build coping skills for anxiety and stress, processing difficult memories related to trauma and abuse, and working through shame and guilt that block forward movement.
Kathleen often helps people untangle relationship patterns and regain a sense of agency after major life changes. When life purpose feels unclear she assists clients in clarifying values and small, manageable next steps toward greater direction.
Her style is direct and respectful. Conversations tend to focus on useful tools, realistic problem-solving, and clearing small barriers so clients can try new behaviors between sessions. She welcomes people who want practical help making changes in their daily life.
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical skills and clear steps. Cognitive methods help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. Behavioral strategies involve setting small, doable experiments to increase activity and reduce avoidance, which can be useful for depression and low motivation.Trauma-informed approaches concentrate on safety and pacing when processing difficult memories. This helps people tolerate strong emotions and reduce the ways past events interfere with current relationships and goals.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Over the first few sessions the plan can be adjusted based on how the client responds and what feels most helpful.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the available options before booking. One practical advantage of online work is easier scheduling around daily life, which can make regular check-ins more realistic. Online sessions can also allow for shorter or quieter check-ins when needed, and they can make it simpler to keep therapy going after a move or during a change in routines.
