Psychotherapy for adults who want

real change

Therapy for OCD and anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Over 30 years in private practice. I offer direct, practical therapy built around your goals, not an insurance company's rules.

Emptiness and agitation are real. Obsessive thoughts and behaviors don't easily stop.

Chasing every thought takes so much time.

You don’t have to keep feeling this way.

Therapy can help you understand what’s actually going on - and what to do about it.

If you’re here, something probably isn’t working. Maybe you feel attached to patterns you don’t understand. Maybe relationships feel harder than they used to. Maybe you’re carrying a constant sense that something is “off,” even if you can’t fully explain it. You might have tried to think your way through it or told yourself to just push forward, and it hasn’t really changed.

My approach is straightforward, practical, and honest. Together, we’ll look at:

what you’re experiencing right now
where those patterns come from
how they’re affecting your life and relationships
what needs to change so things can start to be different

OCD: Obsessive thoughts and compulsions that won't stop, and chasing every thought is draining.

ADHD: Disorganization, missing deadlines, feeling overwhelmed and lost strains relationships and interrupts work.

Anxiety: Constant worry, second guessing, and losing sleep isn't helping.

Depression: Low energy, emptiness, and a sense that life isn't what it can be are signs of something that's amiss.

I also work trauma, addictions, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders.

This isn’t about endless talking - it’s about making sense of your life. A lot of people come to therapy worried it will feel vague or unhelpful. That’s not how I work. I will help you:

see your situation more clearly
understand the “why” behind your thoughts and reactions
recognize patterns you may not have been able to see on your own

When it’s useful, I’ll tell you the truth directly, even when it’s not easy to hear, because real change depends on clarity.

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

Whatever you’re dealing with - whether it’s anxiety, depression, or just a sense that your life isn’t where it should be - there is a way to understand it and move forward. Therapy is where you can work with someone who is paying close attention, who understands the process, and who will help you stay focused on what actually matters.

“I would not hesitate to refer a family member or friend to Dr. Kilgore”

Dr. Jenifer Jacobs

Psychologist in Folsom, CA

“I have worked in close proximity to Dr. Kilgore for over 20 years. In that time, we have shared mentoring doctoral students, teaching/leading group supervisions, attending consultation groups and trainings with other mental health professionals, and seeing clients together and in conjunction. I know her heart and mind, and have seen firsthand the dedication she brings to her work every day. Her knowledge is extensive, but more importantly, her humanity and the way in which it informs her interactions with each individual she encounters is breathtaking. I would not hesitate to refer a family member or friend to Dr. Kilgore for treatment – she’s that good.”
