About Katherine

Katherine Cook is a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with four years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, anger, and related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and she does not accept international clients.

Katherine blends practical, evidence-based methods with a perspective informed by Christian faith. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness and motivational strategies. Conversations focus on real-life problems like workplace stress, social anxiety, and trouble sleeping.

Her style is direct and collaborative. She helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, practice emotion-regulation skills, and try small behavior changes between sessions. She also addresses matters such as caregiver stress, body image, impulsivity, and feelings of emptiness.

Katherine supports people coping with relationship strain, blended family issues, and challenges connected to addiction and recovery. She brings attention to skill building for communication, boundary setting, and managing intense emotions rather than offering quick fixes.

Clients can expect a focus on measurable steps and simple practices they can use day to day. Katherine emphasizes working together to identify goals, try approaches that fit the person, and adjust as needed over time.

How sessions work

How therapy approaches guide online sessions

CBT helps people spot patterns of thinking that keep anger and anxiety active. It breaks problems into small, manageable steps and tests changes in everyday life. DBT offers concrete emotion-regulation skills and ways to tolerate strong feelings without acting impulsively. It is useful for managing intense reactions and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That may mean blending CBT, DBT, and mindfulness tools and adjusting the plan over time.

The original profile does not specify which session formats are used. Before booking, confirm the available online options so they fit your schedule and routine. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into work breaks, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss what works practically during the matching and scheduling steps so sessions can be arranged to match real-life constraints.
