She is currently pursuing a PhD in Social Work at Loyola University Chicago, where she studies pediatric medical trauma. Her clinical background includes work with trauma, post-traumatic stress, and mood disorders. In sessions she aims for warmth and straightforward collaboration.
Katrina helps people talk through feelings of guilt, shame, loneliness, or loss and supports those working to clarify life purpose or rebuild self-love. She explains techniques plainly and practices them together with each person. Her style is practical and person-centered.
Katrina encourages small, doable steps and checks in on progress regularly. People meet to set short-term goals, try new coping strategies, and adjust plans as needed.
How Katrina’s Approaches Work Online
Katrina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT is often useful for anxiety, mood disorders, and seasonal affective concerns because it focuses on changing thought and behavior patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers conversations on the person’s experience and priorities. That approach supports self-reflection, building self-love, and finding purpose.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Katrina will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. Together they try methods and adjust the plan if something doesn’t fit, aiming for clear short-term goals and practical skill building.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into daily life. Video calls are good for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers no camera. Live chat and text messaging can work for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or ongoing support between sessions. These options let people access licensed professionals and keep work moving forward even with busy schedules.
