Dr. Kathie Ward, Clinical Director

Dr. Kathie Ward brings over three decades of expertise in clinical psychology to her role as Clinical Director at MPA. She earned her BS in Psychology from Oklahoma State University, her MA in Clinical Psychology from the University of Tulsa in 1992, and her PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Tulsa in 1998.
Dr. Ward's leadership extends well beyond MPA's walls. She has served as a board member of both the Oklahoma State Board of Examiners of Psychologists and the Oklahoma Psychological Association, and was appointed Oklahoma State Commissioner for PsyPact in 2025 — a role that reflects the depth of trust her peers and the state place in her judgment.
When she's not guiding the clinical vision of MPA, Dr. Ward's world happily revolves around her kids and grandkids. (She didn't even have to think about that one.)
