About Katrina

Katrina Lewis is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and works to make each conversation feel respectful and approachable. Katrina aims to tailor sessions to what an individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

She uses practical, goal-oriented methods and listens first to understand what matters most to the person in front of her. Katrina helps people break problems into manageable steps and build skills they can use day to day.

Background and approach

She also offers coaching-style guidance for career worries and support for coping with grief, relationship strain, sleep problems, and compassion fatigue. With ten years of professional experience and a Virginia LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), Katrina blends listening with concrete strategies. That combination is meant to help people notice small changes that add up over time.

Sessions move at a pace set by the client, with straightforward plans and regular check-ins on progress. Katrina is mindful of cultural concerns and supports women and young adults in particular focus areas listed in her practice. She centers respect and sensitivity in every conversation.

If someone decides to try therapy, she aims to make the process less daunting and more practical. Her work emphasizes building self-love, improving communication, and strengthening coping skills. Katrina encourages hope and steady steps toward a more manageable daily life.

How Katrina Uses Practical Approaches Online

Katrina blends client-centered therapy and mindfulness therapy into online work. Client-centered therapy means she listens without judgment and follows what matters most to the person. This helps clarify concerns and set priorities for change. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce stress and manage intense emotions, which can be useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and grief.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs and goals. That means trying tools together, checking what helps, and adjusting plans as progress is reviewed.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone conversations, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and let people choose the format they find most comfortable. The goal is practical support that fits everyday routines while using approaches that help reduce stress and build coping skills.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
