Kathleen McCauley

Kathleen McCauley

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


I specialize in working with trauma, anxiety, depression, and addiction, and I also support individuals navigating PTSD, life transitions, coping skills, self esteem, chronic stress, and patterns that feel hard to break. I’ve spent years working in crisis intervention and psychiatric treatment settings, supporting adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves.

If you’re struggling with low self-esteem, emotional numbness, relationship patterns that aren’t serving you, or a sense of “I should be okay, but I’m not” — you’re not alone. I deeply believe change is possible, and that healing becomes easier when you don’t have to figure it out by yourself.
