About Katherine
Katherine Cook is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She also supports those dealing with addiction, sleep and eating concerns, parenting strain, and struggles with self-esteem and anger. Katherine brings a calm, direct style that aims to make therapy understandable and practical from the first session.
Her approach mixes cognitive behavioral ideas with mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Sessions focus on concrete tools you can use between meetings, like behavior experiments, grounding skills, and thought tracking.
Background and approach
She also uses motivational interviewing techniques to help people find the motivation to make meaningful changes. Katherine has four years of clinical experience and holds LPC-MHSP and LPC credentials. She practices in Texas and offers sessions in English.
She describes her work as collaborative and values helping people connect their actions to their goals. In sessions Katherine listens for patterns that keep problems going and suggests small, doable steps to shift those patterns. She aims to balance practical skill-building with exploration of values and life meaning.
Many clients find this mix helpful when facing panic, ongoing worry, or big life changes. Therapy can include short-term problem solving or longer conversations about identity, purpose, and healing from past hurts. Decisions about which tools to use are made together, based on the person’s needs and what feels useful in everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments. It helps reduce anxiety, improve mood, and change behaviors that keep problems going. DBT, dialectical behavior therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to manage strong feelings and impulsive reactions. Mindfulness therapy encourages present-moment awareness and simple attention practices to reduce rumination and increase calm.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Katherine will talk with each person about their goals, what has or hasn’t helped before, and what feels most useful. She adapts tools from these approaches so they match the client’s priorities and everyday routines, working collaboratively to adjust the plan over time.
Online therapy formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people meet face to face when bandwidth allows, while phone sessions can be a simpler check-in without video. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill coaching between sessions, or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, caregiving schedules, or times when travel is difficult.
