Katrina Lane

Katrina Lane is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor with more than three decades of experience. She brings a warm, interactive style and aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Katrina frames early sessions around understanding each person's concerns and goals so she can tailor the plan to fit real life.

Her background includes a Master of Science in Psychology from Texas A&M University-Commerce and extensive graduate coursework. She has worked in psychiatric hospitals, day treatment programs, residential care, substance use services, a rape crisis center, and school districts as a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology, alongside private practice work. This variety shapes how she adapts to different situations.

In sessions she combines client-centered methods with cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior techniques. She also incorporates hypnotherapy and Imago Relationship Therapy when appropriate. Katrina uses a trauma-informed lens and considers cultural background and lifestyle when shaping treatment.

People come to her for many concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, grief, parenting strain, anger, and ADHD. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment wounds, caregiver stress, body image, and family of origin issues.

Katrina focuses on practical conversation and concrete skills. She works with each person to set realistic steps, practice coping strategies, and track progress over time. Her aim is to help people move toward more manageable days and clearer choices.

How Katrina's Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Client-centered work means conversations focus on the person's goals and lived experience. In practice this looks like open questions, reflective listening, and pacing work to match what the client needs that day.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice thoughts and habits that increase stress or anger and replace them with more helpful patterns. It often uses short exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments to test changes between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These are useful when strong feelings get in the way of daily routines or relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Katrina will listen to current concerns, goals, and preferences and then recommend techniques or combinations that fit. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is tracked.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by reducing commute time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or making it easier to schedule around caregiving. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, DBT, and client-centered work to an online setting so people can practice skills and discuss progress between sessions.
