Therapists in McKinney, TX

When I speak to people facing transitions, they are often devastated, confused and stuck. A safe space to feel heard, encouraged, and validated is enough to begin a new journey. My name is Katrina Brown, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with sixteen years of experience. My specialties include working with individuals, couples, and families dealing with divorce/separation, blended families, and absent parents.

Children often do not have the words to express what they are thinking or feeling. Traditional talk therapy alone is rarely successful in helping children process difficult life situations. I help children overcome anxiety, depression, and other challenges. I also assist parents in building strong, open relationships with their children. If your child is going through anxiety, sadness, behavior problems, social issues, or life changes (divorce, loss of a loved one, etc.) I am happy to walk along side them in their journey. In addition to working with children, I also see teens and adults.

My goal in counseling is to encourage and motivate my clients as we work together through the process of healing. I help clients work through life's challenges, establish and accomplish their goals, and ultimately change their lives in more healthy and positive ways.

Relationships are what humans were created for and can be extremely life-giving. However, sometimes we go through hardships that may create distance or unhealthy behavior patterns in these relationships. As a counselor and former educator using a holistic approach, I take into consideration the unique needs and strengths of each individual I work with. I strive to create a non-judgemental space where clients feel heard and understood. By utilizing evidence-based techniques, I assist clients in identifying patterns, gaining self-awareness and developing practical tools to overcome obstacles.

Healing can mean diving deep into your past. Those depths can be a scary, painful place, but there’s treasure, too. You're created in God’s image, uniquely wired to be like no one else, with gifts and strengths to discover. I welcome you to a safe space to explore yourself. You’re free to be completely, unashamedly YOU... w/out the masks that hide what's beneath the surface. I'll listen, offer validation, show acceptance/grace, & encourage you to take those first steps towards becoming the YOU God intended. Learn to extend grace to yourself as you discover the life you’ve always wanted. Saturday appts available, BCBS accepted.

Exhausted. Hoping to have a good day with your child, but hope ran out when he had another tantrum. Praying for some relief. The yelling and screaming and the anxiety are becoming unmanageable. Just one good day. That's not asking too much, is it? Lots of advice but nothing has worked. Or it works for a while and then it goes back to the same old thing. Fear of what might happen means staying home most of the time. Surely there is a better way. For you and your child.

My goal is to walk alongside individuals, couples and families to see how to best help in their time of need. I work hard to help provide hope to those who are hurting, and believe the only way to experience true change, is for God, to ultimately change a person's heart.
