About Katherine
Katherine Gross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She draws on 13 years of clinical experience and uses person-centered and narrative ideas to guide sessions. Her approach is warm and direct, and she focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, parenting challenges, trauma, grief, or changes at work or home.
Katherine aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters most to them.
Background and approach
She listens closely and helps clients name patterns, values, and goals. Sessions emphasize practical steps alongside deeper reflection so people feel both heard and guided. Her background includes a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Texas State University, completed in 2011, and practicum work in a bereavement group and a center for families affected by trauma.
That early experience shaped her interest in grief work, attachment concerns, and trauma-informed care. Clinically she blends Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. That mix lets her tailor sessions for issues like anxiety, depression, parenting struggles, postpartum mood changes, and adoption or foster-care related concerns.
Katherine also supports people facing relationship strain, identity questions related to LGBT issues, and life transitions such as midlife change or career shifts. She describes counseling as a collaborative process where clients set the pace and she offers tools, insights, and coaching to move forward.
How Katherine’s Approaches Translate Online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions use conversation and reflection to gently identify attachment patterns and improve connection with partners or children.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own experience and choices. In remote sessions Katherine listens without judgment and helps clients name their values and next steps, which fits well with phone or video conversations.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Through video or messaging she helps people test unhelpful thoughts and try small, doable behavioral changes between meetings.
Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist and client work together to find what fits best for the person’s needs, goals, and comfort level. Plans can shift as progress unfolds so the work stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls let for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging keeps momentum between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity through life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
