About Kay

Kay Cagle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with six years of experience and licensure in Texas and Oklahoma. She has worked in inpatient and outpatient settings and lists stress, anxiety, relationships, family and parenting concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and ADHD among her areas of focus. Kay works primarily with adults, including people in early adulthood, and communicates in English.

She describes a practical, goal-oriented way of working. Sessions focus on setting clear boundaries and measurable goals. Kay draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Existential ideas, and Jungian concepts to guide conversations about thoughts, values, and patterns.

Kay’s background includes both inpatient and outpatient clinical work. That variety informs how she adapts to different situations and needs. She aims to build rapport quickly and to support clients as they identify changes they want to make.

In sessions people can expect direct, work-focused conversations about current problems and patterns from the past. Kay mentions mindfulness and evidence-based techniques as part of her toolbox. She helps clients translate insights into practical steps they can try between meetings.

Kay notes she has worked with individuals across the lifespan and with people navigating major life stages. For someone in their late teens or twenties feeling behind, overwhelmed by relationships, work, or study, she offers focused support aimed at clearer boundaries and realistic goals.

Approaches for online sessions and what they do

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and committed action. It helps people notice what matters to them, accept difficult thoughts or feelings, and take steps toward chosen goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses practical exercises and experiments to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms such as anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first based on current needs and goals. That collaboration includes checking how an approach feels in practice and adjusting it over time.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered online. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether video or phone meetings are possible. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to be on camera for every meeting. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises for remote sessions so practical tools and weekly experiments still happen between meetings.
