Kay Cagle

Kay Cagle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with six years of clinical experience based in Texas. She holds a Master of Science in Psychological Services and has provided care in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Kay aims to build a steady rapport so clients feel heard and understood from the first visit.

She leans on practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Kay also supports people facing relationship and parenting challenges, intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, ADHD-related issues, and big life transitions. Her background includes work with adults at different life stages and in varied care settings.

In sessions she focuses on clear boundaries and measurable goals. Kay draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and other approaches to craft plans that match each person’s needs. Conversations emphasize concrete skills, mindful awareness, and values-driven choices.

She describes her role as a steady, encouraging presence who helps people uncover what matters and move toward it. Progress often comes from small, consistent changes practiced between sessions. Kay keeps improving her own skills so she can better support the people she meets.

Clients in Texas who want a practical, compassionate approach to women's issues, family stresses, parenting strains, or personal growth may find her style approachable and action oriented.

How Kay’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values. It often helps with anxiety, depression, life changes, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for stress, anxiety, mood shifts, and coping strategies. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person’s experience, using empathy and active listening to help people feel understood and to support self-directed change.

Choosing the right method is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they will try approaches and adjust based on what works in real life rather than assuming one path fits everyone.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use sessions for focused skill practice, values planning, or managing parenting and relationship responsibilities around other commitments.
