Great to meet you!

Maybe you are the one everyone else leans on, and you are quietly wondering who is there for you. I'm Kathryn Kirkland-Franco, a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Texas with 23 years in this eld. I work with women and couples moving

through life's harder transitions: relationship strain, grief, the slow erosion of feeling like yourself. I believe the answers are often already inside you, and they surface faster inside a relationship you trust.

My approach to therapy

My foundations are primarily Solution Focused Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe the answers to many life questions and issues can be found inside ourselves and that they can more easily be tapped into when we engage in a trusting therapeutic relationship. When I meet people through the course of normal daily interactions, they often guess that I am a therapist, citing my calm and reassuring nature. I encourage you to reach out if this is the kind of therapeutic relationship you are looking for and if not, I wish you all the best and congratulate you on your progress toward self-care.

What you can expect from me

In our first session you can expect that I will be curious about not only what is bringing you in for therapy, but also about the context of your life. Who do you live with, who makes up your support system, how do you practice self-care, how do you relate to others and what do you think is important I know about you?
