About Katherine
Katherine Cook is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and struggles with parenting. She supports individuals dealing with addictions, self-esteem concerns, sleep and eating issues, and the emotional strain of life changes. Her practice also includes work around LGBT concerns, anger, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue.
Katherine uses practical, down-to-earth methods in sessions. She draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to help clients notice patterns and try different responses.
Background and approach
She also brings elements of dialectical skills and motivational interviewing when someone needs help managing intense feelings or finding motivation for change. Sessions tend to focus on learning tools and practicing them between meetings. Katherine listens closely, helps set small goals, and checks what does and does not help.
She aims to make each step feel manageable rather than overwhelming. She holds LPC-MHSP and LPC credentials and practices in Texas. Katherine has four years of experience working with adults who want clearer thinking, steadier mood, and better day-to-day coping.
She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules. People often start by describing one or two pressing problems. Katherine helps break those concerns into concrete steps.
The work is collaborative and paced to the person’s needs.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Katherine often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT focuses on practical exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and change repetitive patterns. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when feelings run high.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katherine treats therapy as a collaborative process and will discuss which methods match a person's goals, worries, and day-to-day routine. She adjusts techniques based on what helps most and on a client's feedback during sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and interactive skill practice. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between meetings or use brief coaching-style support. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent when schedules are tight or travel is necessary.
