Kathleen Borgeson

Kathleen Borgeson acknowledges the courage it takes to reach out for support and meets each person with a calm, compassionate presence. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in California; this clinical social work credential authorizes her to provide therapy and indicates extensive training in mental health care.

With 25 years of clinical experience, Kathleen has worked with children, adolescents, adults and senior citizens across a range of life stages. Much of her practice has focused on grief and loss - whether that loss involves a loved one, a job, a home, a relationship, or a miscarriage - and she understands how grief can surface alongside depression, anxiety and feelings of insecurity.

Kathleen specializes in grief, self-esteem, coping with life changes, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, career difficulties, depression and compassion fatigue. She aims to create a space where feelings about loss can be expressed and where practical tools and resources help a person return to a more stable level of functioning.

Her approach blends narrative work, mindfulness and motivational interviewing with evidence-informed methods such as cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused therapy, all delivered in a patient-centered manner. Kathleen brings a caring, supportive style and stands ready to help clients wherever they are in their healing process. Her commitment is to listen closely, provide steady support and address the struggles a person is facing.
