With 25 years of clinical experience, Katherine draws on a mix of practical methods to help clients build skills and notice what works for them. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize each person’s goals and perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps break down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness practices are used to strengthen calm and present-moment awareness.

Katherine’s background includes long-term work in substance-abuse programs and many years in private practice. That experience informs how she approaches codependency, addictions, and the depression or anxiety that often comes with those issues. She has also supported people through grief, aging concerns, blended family adjustments, and caregiver stress.

In sessions she focuses on identifying personal strengths and small, manageable steps forward. She pays attention to feelings of belonging and self-worth while helping clients develop concrete coping tools. The emphasis is on working together to build confidence and better day-to-day functioning.

People considering therapy are invited to take an initial matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability. Katherine speaks English and holds an LPC credential in Minnesota.

How Katherine Uses CBT and Mindfulness Online

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and perspective. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and shapes sessions around what matters most to the individual, such as managing anger or rebuilding self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to interrupt unhelpful patterns like rumination or avoidance. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm in tense moments.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and everyday routines, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made along the way so the work stays practical and relevant to the person’s life.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier by reducing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also support using tools between sessions, such as homework from CBT or brief mindfulness exercises, which helps maintain progress between meetings.
