About Kathlene
Kathlene Pendleton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She brings eight years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood difficulties, addiction concerns, grief, and ADHD. Her work focuses on practical steps clients can use between sessions.
Kathlene uses a collaborative style. She listens first, then helps set clear, manageable goals. Sessions often center on building coping skills and routines that fit a person's daily life.
Her approach combines several well-established methods to match each person's needs.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness strategies are used to improve focus and reduce reactivity. Emotionally-focused ideas help people understand patterns in relationships and intimacy.
Dialectical behavior tools add skills for managing intense feelings and improving emotional regulation. Kathlene also helps with practical life challenges like parenting stress, caregiver strain, money worries, and career concerns. She pays attention to guilt, shame, and self-esteem as these often affect day-to-day decision making.
People who choose her tend to want clear steps, compassionate listening, and a plan they can try between appointments. Sessions are conducted in English and are available across Texas through online formats listed on the profile.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It can help people who feel stuck and want a clearer sense of direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, giving straightforward skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or distance barriers. Video calls let you see facial cues and do deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging can work for quick skill practice, written reflections, or when messaging fits better into a day. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into everyday life.
