About Katherine
She earned a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Texas State University in 2011 and has practiced for 13 years. Early clinical work included a bereavement group and a center serving people who had experienced trauma. That background informs how she responds to grief, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue.
Katherine uses person-centered values like unconditional positive regard and genuineness to create a steady space for conversation. She also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. Cognitive and motivational techniques are available when practical steps or behavior changes are helpful.
Her focus areas include parenting challenges, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, and family of origin problems. She also supports people dealing with anger, codependency, commitment and control issues, money stress, and life-purpose questions.
Katherine’s experience spans working with people facing panic symptoms, postpartum depression, ADHD, and career concerns. She encourages a collaborative process where the person’s goals guide each session. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before scheduling.

How her approaches guide online work
Attachment-based work focuses on relationship patterns and how early connections influence current bonds. In practice this means talking through how clients relate to others and identifying small changes that improve trust and closeness. Client-centered therapy centers the person’s experience and priorities, offering empathy and space so clients can make sense of their feelings and choose next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) zeroes in on thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and uses practical exercises to shift patterns, which can help with anxiety, panic, and mood changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Katherine treats it as a collaboration: she listens to a person’s goals and preferences and then suggests methods that fit those aims. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan as needed based on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try methods like narrative work or CBT homework between sessions so progress continues outside the appointment.
