Kathy-Ann Dougan

Hello,, I'm Kathy-Ann Dougan, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of California, and a Christian life coach. My faith isn't separate from my work — it's the foundation of it. I utilize brief and longer-term evidence-based clinical methods alongside an awareness of our spiritual humanness. Areas of attention for clients may be anxiety, relational struggles, life transitions, and pain that often goes unspoken. Some come needing to be heard & understood; others, with areas around acceptance & attention, care or lack of care, needing wisdom, and desiring answers — courage to face what's presently occurring & things of the past — faith to believe again, forgiveness & needing to forgive, friendship, support, protection, purpose, and peace, strength, resolving differences, establishing healthy boundaries, and other areas. Scripture is the infallible Word of God, that's amazing, & sometimes creates questions, challenges & imparts character formation, growth and development than we can fully understand — Once I wrongly believed Scripture was merely words on pages, until I came to know it as living truth. I bring both professional training and honest, unpretentiousnes into every session. I'd be honored to support you through this next season.

My approach is grounded in Christian values that emphasize hope, restoration, and emotional well-being while providing a safe and supportive space for healing.

In our first session, you can expect a safe, supportive, and nonjudgemental space to share what's bringing you to therapy. We'll discuss your goals, current challenges, and begin creating a path toward healing, growth and lasting change towards achieveyour goals, or I'll point you to the direction that may best support you.
