Background and approach
Concerns around body image, codependency, and process addictions such as gambling or pornography are part of her caseload. Her approach is collaborative and nonjudgmental. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, building coping skills, and setting realistic goals.
Katy uses straightforward strategies that people can apply between sessions to reduce distress and increase stability. Katy has particular experience supporting people after traumatic events and with self-harm thoughts. She also addresses financial stress and the emotional fallout of separation.
Her work blends practical problem-solving with attention to emotional healing. Therapy is offered in multiple remote formats to fit different schedules. Katy accepts clients in Texas and works with international clients in English.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session that fits the client’s availability.
Evidence-based approaches for online healing
Many clients benefit from evidence-based techniques that focus on thoughts, behaviors, and coping skills. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and then practice healthier responses to stress and mood changes. This approach can be helpful for depression, anxiety, and obsessive thinking.Another useful method emphasizes building behavioral changes through small, practical steps. It targets compulsive actions, addictions, and impulsivity by breaking habits into manageable parts and rehearsing alternative behaviors. This helps with substance use, process addictions, and compulsive routines.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Katy will work with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what helps, adjust strategies over time, and set achievable goals that fit daily life.
Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexible scheduling and easier access from different locations. Video calls let people read facial cues and have a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to check in between sessions and get support without arranging a full call.
