More about Kathleen
- 7 years' experience

- LMFT
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist, a Board Certified Sex Therapist and a Clinical Sexologist. I take a wholistic approach to healing, mind body and spirit. I incorporate Spirituality in healing because this permeates different areas in a person's life. There will be times when I will refer to a Psychiatrist or a Urologist when the issues are beyond my scope of practice.
I use different interventions in the healing processes. Some interventions I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Dialectal Therapy, EFT and the Gottman Method. There are times when the trauma is complex or beyond the person's awareness and I will use Brainspotting, Hypnotherapy or Somatic Experiencing. However, the intervention (s) are tailored specifically to the clients needs.
The goal for each client is to help them to function at an optimum level. I am committed to changing lives, one person and one family at a time.
It will be an honor and a privilege to work with you to achieve your goals.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I enjoyed the first session.
Kathleen helped me rewire my brain and helped me plan for my well being.
Dr. Meeks has been kind and attentive during my journey into personal therapy. I would not hesitate to recommend her!
Kathleen is always there when I need. She takes the time to understand how I’m feeling and gives me tasks I can do to alleviate anxiety. It really does help. She’s helped me through some very tough times and helped me see the light. I can honestly say she is amazing and important to me because of how much she’s been there for me .
She’s perfection and a wonderful therapist
I have only had one session so far...I really liked her and our time spent together ❤️
Kathleen continues to always support me in an amazing manner. I could not have reached where I am now in my journey without her.
She is very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and very helpful.
I had an incredible experience during my therapy sessions with Kathy! She really helped me gain some valuable insights and make some positive changes in my life.
Kathleen has been wonderful! She is tactful, she follows up, does gentle reminders and has been very professional. The consistency and the clear communication have been really helpful.
Kathy is all together a wonderful therapist. It is very clear even from my first visit that she is very well educated and is well equipped for helping with my mental health journey. She is able to listen attentively, takes time to process my words, and helps direct me to an understanding of where my emotions come from, what’s healthy and not healthy, and how to work on things I might want to change. She also uses questions very well to either help her understanding of my feelings or situation, as well as helping me get to conclusions myself to help me better understand.
I love Kathleen Meeks! She listens, is understanding, and gives great feedback. I highly recommend her!
Thank you kathleen
Kathleen’s years of experience and expertise is very apparent in the first few minutes. She is very precise in how she responds and asks questions. When relevant, she recounts her own experience to empathize with the subject matter. Kathleen immediately placed me in a safe and reassuring place for self-reflection and life-planning during our session.
She listened to my problems and gave me a number of exercises and coping tools to help me.
Kathleen is very helpful!
This woman is an excellent therapist, and possibly a goddess. Best investment of time and she has greatly supported my healing journey and helped me leave an abusive relationship.
Kathleen is a kind-hearted woman who is strong in her faith. From the moment I first met her I knew I was matched correctly. She is calm, understanding, a good listener, and guides the conversation well. Every time I leave a video session with her I feel refreshed! In just a few weeks I have noticed a positive change in my thinking.
Kathleen is awesome. From the moment we started working together she gave me trust and confidence that I can share my life with her. We have similar backgrounds and culture and it really helps when I’m expressing my concerns. She is kind and is always there for me. I can always chat with her and she’s always willing to help. She’s an Angel sent from above. After my talks with her, my heart always feels so much better.
Kathleen is kind, open-minded, insightful, and very helpful. She's great to work with.
Was nervous about trying to do therapy over the phone but this is GREAT! Dr Meek is very patient and very insightful. Gets to the point and uproots the issues quickly and in a gentle way. Highly highly recommend. Thank you so much for turning my life around!
She is honest which I think I’ve missed in a lot of therapists. She doesn’t sugarcoat it but she is still respectful and kind. She also is extremely supportive and laughs along with jokes I make which helps to alleviate some tension of the subject of conversation. She is such a sweet soul and truly an expert. She knows what she’s talking about and I respect her and her input and feel she is a reliable therapist that will help me achieve many milestones in my mental health journey. 10/10
She has help me so much! Understanding and has great advice on how I can moved forward from my trauma. Happy and healing and I wouldn’t be in this space without her!
She’s great! Very knowledgeable and a great listener. While also providing great service to help cope with my mental health, thank you so much’.
I haven’t had too much time back into therapy and actually addressing my issues, but when I am in contact with Kathleen it is very helpful to me.
Kathleen is very knowledgeable and is very welcoming. Speaking to her the first time she listens and cares about your opinions and feelings. I’m so happy to be working with her.
Kathleen is an amazing therapist that brings a lot of joy.
Kathleen is very down to earth and relatable. She’s been a great support and great therapist.
Dr. Meek is the best therapist I have ever worked with, her expertise is not only apparent in her knowledge but in how she applies theoretical concepts to real experiences.
She is absolutely amazing and I feel good knowing I can be vulnerable, open, and honest and she gives me insight on so much. I love that she provides me with medical references on how the body works as well when dealing with certain things. I really look forward to our meetings every week, as it’s one of my highlights. I leave her sessions feeling like a weight has been lifted and ready to continue working on myself.
Ms Meek is kind, compassionate and a genuinely amazing person to talk to. There are times where the conversation is series and we deal with my problems head on, and there are also really lighthearted and fun moments. She gives concrete advice, and a lot of homework. Id definitely recommend betterhelp and Ms Meek to my peers
I appreciate her positive affect when I talk to her. She does not appear to be judgmental in what I talk to her. She is available to speak with me in a kind and friendly manner
Spot on. Compassionate, fun and intelligent
I have enjoyed gleaning the wisdom Kathleen offers in session. It is very helpful!
Kathleen is caring and empathetic. She is great a helping me process what I'm going through and my past experiences.
Kathleen is an incredible therapist! So far we have had three sessions which have already had a huge impact on me. I am always looking forward to our next one!
It is very early days, two days in, but she seems to have a lot of knowledge and is engaging, not just listening, so a two way process that I can get different coping methods from and not just talk therapy.
I’ve only had two sessions with Kathleen but she is very warm and easy to talk to, and takes a trauma-informed approach. I’m looking forward to continuing sessions with her!
I've only had her for two sessions at the time of writing but I'm extremely satisfied and fulfilled with her therapy sessions thus far
Ms.Meek is a kind, keen listener, funny and someone who make your feel very comfortable and heard. She is extremely knowledgeable in her expertise and I am happy to have met her. I would recommend her to anyone and I truly wish I had more time with her. She feels like that wise friend you have, who supports you in a way that only makes a better you.
I feel safe processing my thoughts and feelings with Kathleen. I appreciate that we can work through difficult moments and share some laughter too. I’m grateful to have met her for this part of my healing journey.
Kathleen Meek is not only a great ther3but a really great and loving person that I admire the things she is doing. I highly recommend her. She is the best!
Wonderful Therapist.
I really do enjoy my sessions with my therapist Ms Meek. She is a great listener and she dose help me to understand myself better and why I feel the ways that I do in certain situations. She also provides litte work sheets and excercises for me to do that are surprisingly really helpful. After my weekly sessions I always feel better in myself and more confident... I really just wish that the sessions would last longer lol because they are soooo good. I would highly recommend Ms Kathleen to anyone who is looking to have a more positive mindset, bost their confidence and just to better themselves in all areas.
Kathleen is easy to talk to and is very attentive. She gave great feedback and provided advice and resources to address the issues we spoke about.
Kathleen is super prompt and professional, she obviously is well versed in her field. When I started therapy she was able to quickly diagnose and provide beneficial exercises to my situation immediately, I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
From the first session with Kathleen, I got a great feeling about this match. She is wise, grounded, cheerful, and empathetic. Her expertise is evident- her ability to break down complex cognitive and behavioral processes is easy to understand. She gives practical tools to help with challenges I express. I feel like she genuinely wants to help and truly listens. To me, that is invaluable, and I’m grateful for her. I would highly recommend Kathleen as a therapist.
