Pullman Behavioral Health is an outpatient mental health clinic focused on providing evidence-based psychotherapy services for a wide range of presenting issues.

Kathleen (Katie) Caffrey, PhD, and Chad Sanders, PhD, both graduated from the Clinical Psychology doctoral program at Washington State University. Katie completed her residency training at the VA Los Angeles ambulatory care center and Chad completed his residency at the University of Washington Medical Center and Harborview Medical Center followed by a two-year postdoctoral fellowship back at WSU. After his postdoc, Chad was brought on at Palouse Psychiatry and Behavioral Health, part of the Pullman Regional Hospital Clinic Network, and Katie later joined him where they both provided psychotherapy and neuropsychological testing services for several years before opening this private practice.

As licensed Clinical Psychologists, they have received the highest level of training in mental health care focused specifically on psychological assessment and psychotherapy. This includes advanced graduate education prioritizing a deep understanding of complex emotional, behavioral, and relational concerns and presentations along with the full range of requisite empirically supported therapies and related scientific literature. This training background also encompasses years of extensive supervised clinical experience across a wide range of practica and residency training rotations. 

This training provides a full and nuanced understanding of mental health concerns and effective treatment approaches – but it does not solely determine how therapy unfolds. Instead, it is a foundation upon which intention and flexibility help shape the process of therapy together through collaboration, responsiveness, and genuine connection, all the while staying attentive to what feels most meaningful and helpful along the way.
