About Yekaterina

Yekaterina Taylor is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside relationship stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and mood challenges. Her tone is direct but warm, aiming to help parents and partners find practical ways forward when life feels overwhelming.

She prefers clear, straightforward conversations. Sessions often involve identifying patterns in relationships and daily routines, then trying small changes to reduce conflict and stress.

Background and approach

She explains observations plainly and offers steps people can use between sessions. Her background includes training in family systems and trauma-informed approaches. Yekaterina uses tools from attachment-based work and motivational interviewing to support decision making and connection.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to trace how past experiences affect current relationships. Clients can expect a mix of short-term, goal-focused work and deeper exploration when needed. Practical problem solving and skill-building show up alongside conversations about meaning and history.

The aim is to make home life and relationships more manageable. Yekaterina holds a Texas LMFT license (TX LMFT 202470). She offers sessions in English and works with international clients.

Online formats include video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Getting started involves a short questionnaire and scheduling a session.

How her approaches work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and trust. Online sessions can help identify those patterns and build more supported ways of relating with partners and family members. Motivational Interviewing is a practical, conversational approach that helps people clarify goals and find their own reasons to change. It is useful for parenting shifts, career moves, and managing addictions or lifestyle changes. Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on safely addressing painful memories and their effects on daily life, using paced work to reduce distress and improve functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose methods that match the situation and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy allows the same therapeutic methods to be used via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. This flexibility helps parents and busy professionals fit sessions into tight schedules and continue care when travel or relocation occurs. Sessions can combine brief coaching-style conversations with longer explorations, all delivered in formats that suit the client's life and needs.

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.

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.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
