Background and approach

Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past events are getting in the way of day-to-day life. Her style is collaborative and goal oriented. Katrina works with each person to set clear, manageable steps and checks progress regularly.

She favors short-term skills you can use between sessions as well as deeper work when needed. Katrina’s background includes work in a range of counseling settings related to military and civilian communities. She brings five years of professional experience into clinical work and understands stressors tied to military life and transitions.

Sessions may include talking through current problems, practicing new coping skills, and planning concrete behavior changes. She adjusts pace and focus to match what the person needs at the time. People who choose Katrina can expect straightforward feedback and practical tools.

Her aim is to make therapy feel useful and relevant to everyday life, helping people move from feeling stuck to taking small, steady steps forward.

How Katrina’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice patterns of thinking that fuel worry or low mood and then test new ways of thinking and acting. It often includes short exercises and practice between sessions to change reactions to stress and anxiety.

Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on addressing the effects of past traumatic events and teaching coping strategies that reduce reactivity and intrusive memories. Work typically moves at a pace chosen with the person and includes grounding and stabilization skills first.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Katrina will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and recommend strategies that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill demonstration and deep work. Phone sessions may be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging can support quick reflections, mood check-ins, or brief skill coaching between sessions. These options aim to increase flexibility and make it easier to keep therapy consistent.
