Kathleen Cates-Richardson

“Kathleen has been so great to work with! She is kind and patient. She's not afraid to ask the hard questions to make me think about other perspectives on the different situations that come up and I really appreciate that. Would definitely recommend!”

“I was hesitant to try BetterHelp, because of difficult experiences with therapy in the past. Kathleen was the first therapist they connected me with, and she has been wonderful! Talking with her just feels like having a conversation, even when I’m talking about heavy and painful things. She made me feel comfortable right away, and she has the perfect way of gently redirecting/challenging my thoughts when they are a little self-destructive. I was diagnosed with PTSD by a previous therapist, and I never thought I would be able to process or heal from the event that caused it. It truly debilitated me, and I felt like I was barely living. Kathleen has created a safe space for me to finally begin to explore and heal this wound, as well as other wounds I hadn’t even realized were there! She has helped me relearn healthy boundaries and habits, and how to recognize when my thoughts begin to spiral. After years of just “surviving,” I’m finally starting to feel like I’m able to LIVE my life again! I am grateful to have Kathleen as my therapist while I continue my healing journey!”

“Kathleen is a true blessing!!!”

“We have a hard time connecting every time due to your video conferencing. Not our therapists issue, but a Regain issue.”

“I've only had one true appointment, which was great!! A couple of things I really appreciate is that she messages on the therapy session page, has opened up later times to accomodate my work schedule. I appreciate her opinions and thoughts on the topics we have discussed”

“Kathleen is an excellent therapist. She listens with compassion, asks helpful questions, and draws from an understanding of the whole person to offer suggestions of strategies and tools for moving forward in new ways that make a difference for the better.”

“We met Kathleen for the first time last week. And although one time is the only level of experience we have, both my spouse and I felt comfortable with her, appreciated the level of questions she asked that got right to the heart of things, good listening, and empathy she exhibited, and were pleasantly surprised at the attention to our situations she gave and the efforts we would be putting in to try and make our marriage work. I believe she will be very helpful in our journey and I do believe she is a kind and knowledgeable and capable therapist.”

“She has been great!”

“Great experience.”

“Kathleen is very knowledgeable, caring, supportive, and thoughtful”

“Professional, kind and courteous! Can’t imagine how much she has helped!”
