About Katherine

Katherine Holloway is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Washington with 20 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and low self-esteem. Her approach is practical and goal-focused, aimed at building useful skills for everyday life.

Katherine draws from methods that include cognitive behavioral techniques and emotion-focused work. She uses mindfulness practices and solution-focused strategies to help people manage symptoms and try new ways of responding.

Background and approach

She also employs trauma-focused tools for people recovering from past injuries. Sessions move at a practical pace. Katherine helps clients set clear goals, test small changes, and expand their toolbox of coping skills.

Conversations are direct but warm, focused on what’s working and what to try next. Her background includes a degree in Conflict Management and Communication, which informs how she addresses difficult conversations and boundary setting. That training also shapes her interest in communication problems, blended family issues, and divorce or separation concerns.

Katherine’s work over two decades includes helping people with workplace stress, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, fatherhood issues, and life purpose questions. She emphasizes collaborative planning and steady skill building so people can use what they learn outside of sessions. Therapy is offered in English and based in Washington.

Katherine approaches each person as an individual and partners with them to find practical, usable strategies for the challenges they bring.

Online support

Approaches and online options for parenting and stress

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions in real time and strengthens how they respond to feelings in close relationships. It can be useful when relationship strain or communication problems are part of the stress you’re facing.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, change unhelpful thought patterns, and test new behaviors in daily life.

Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. That can be helpful for managing stress, rumination, and strong emotions after trauma.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. Katherine will talk with each person about symptoms, goals, and preferences, and then recommend methods to try. She often blends techniques so the plan fits the issue and the client’s pace.

Online therapy offers several ways to work together. Video calls let you read facial cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, and quick problem-solving between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule regular work on goals from wherever you are.
