Many clients have shared with me that I have successfully made the therapeutic experience less stressful for them. I have been able to put them at ease and feel safe and understood. The clients I work with feel accepted and not judged for who they are, what they have or have not done, or the emotional state they are in when they start therapy. Working in outpatient private practice settings, school wellness centers, community mental health centers, and prisons has allowed me to meet and work ...
ANGER gets a bad reputation, and so sometimes we miss its purpose. Its purpose? To alert us to IMPORTANT NEEDS GOING UNMET! Problem is, when we’re angry we’re thinking in ways that get in the way of meeting those needs. I help people connect with the needs behind their anger, learn the words for talking about it in ways that increase the chances of being heard and respected, and find creative solutions. I help people identify the thoughts that cause their anger, and then I help them question ...

You know what you want to change. Yet, you know they aren't improving or even worsening, leaving you feeling more alone. While a part of you wants to feel connected and supported by loved ones and friends, they may not get it and would confirm your fear of rejection or for being too much. You've always been highly sensitive to other people's emotions, and you learned young to hide them and deal with it by yourself. Deep down you want support, but don't know what or how to get it, leaving you fee...

Hello, and welcome. My name is Kathleen McGah and I offer a comfortable, confidential space for teens, college-age students and young adults to talk about whatever is on their mind, at one's own pace, and without judgment. When people have a safe place to practice putting thoughts and feelings into words, they find they grow psychologically stronger over time - and more satisfied with various aspects of life. I have worked with many students who, initially, have been hesitant to talk wit...
