About Kathleen
Kathleen McGlynn is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 12 years of professional experience. She helps people who are dealing with addictions, anger, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and parenting stress. Kathleen also works with concerns such as self-esteem, career change, bipolar disorder, and coping with major life changes.
Her sessions are practical and focused on what you can do differently day to day. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and to test new ways of responding. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on the person in front of her and how they see their situation.
Clients can expect straightforward talk about goals, what has and hasn't worked so far, and small experiments to try between sessions. Kathleen pays attention to patterns that keep problems going and helps set realistic, step-by-step tasks to shift those patterns. She invites feedback on the pace and direction of work so plans stay useful.
Her background across 12 years includes work with people facing intense stress, compassion fatigue, and complex concerns such as hoarding, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, paranoia, intellectual disability, HIV/AIDS related issues, and personality disorder traits. That experience shapes a practical approach to stabilizing day-to-day functioning.

How her approaches translate to online work
CBT focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then testing small changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, and habits you want to change. Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's perspective first, using reflective listening and questions to clarify goals and priorities.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Kathleen will work together with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust plans based on what helps most. That collaborative planning is intended to make sessions practical and goal-focused.
This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and behavioral experiments so they fit daily routines and the realities of life outside appointments.
