I believe in being non-judgmental and that when you feel comfortable and trusting you can then explore, and often resolve, whatever problems you are facing. I think it is important for you to be mindful of your thoughts and beliefs to better understand patterns in your life. I will encourage you to be MINDFUL of how you respond to others and to your environment as a means of learning about yourself. I believe change happens when we carefully examine our beliefs and behaviors, then decide to do something differently

My desire is to journey together discovering and uncovering needs in a non-judgmental format. My premise is that the client, you, have choices. I work on dealing with positivity and positive changes. A therapeutic relationship is the primary goal and then we, together can work on the journey toward creating a plan for you. This journey will be one of trust, open communication, respect, and empathy to name a few. Understanding and knowing each person has differing needs, no two clients are ever approached or treated the same. You are uniquely you and I respect and honor your journey.

Life can be full of challenges and stressors. Seeking out help and support can be challenging.

Katrina Estes
Master Social Worker, LMSW-CC, CADC
Unfortunately, at this time I am not taking on new clients. I work with people who have trouble with relationships, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, rage fits, struggle with addiction/alcohol, have gone through trauma, and grew up in unhealthy homes. People who at times wish they could escape life and need support to remember how to smile, or sometimes learn how to smile (for real) for the first time. If someone uses legal and/or illegal substances and wants to quit or not, I support your decision. If you want to ease your anxiety, anger, and/or sadness and want to feel happy, I believe you deserve that! :)

Therapy can provide children a safe and supportive setting to learn to identify and express their emotions and make progress with social integration, growth and development. They have the opportunity to develop skills to more effectively manage their social and emotional challenges that impact their interactions with others. Parents strive to create happiness in the lives of their children. In my practice, they will learn to identify their strengths, become more confident in their ability to work through their emotional challenges, improve their social skills, increase self-awareness and develop a more positive sense of self.

I am non-binary, polyamorous, and pansexual and love providing support to people in the LGBTQ+ community. I love working with children and teenagers, but have no specific age restrictions on my practice. I'm seeking clients who need to explore their emotions, experiences, and behaviors in an expressive way. Talking only gets us so far, whereas in my experience, use of the Expressive Arts (dance, drama, music, art, and writing) has an ability to get at the deeper stuff.

Life threatening experiences sometimes affect us long after the danger has passed. If you find yourself moving through the world in fear, avoiding situations that remind you, even remotely, of the past, EMDR can help. EMDR addresses the cycle of triggering and avoidance that can be so painful and disruptive. The typical course of EMDR is 1-10 sessions. It may sound unlikely that such powerful memories can soften and lose their hold in just a few sessions. But that is what you can expect from EMDR. It is why EMDR is the treatment of choice for PTSD.

Hello and Welcome! Currently offering Telehealth and in-community meetings; I specialize in techniques that focus on the health of the relationships between people. I utilize Relational and Narrative Therapy; where you are the expert of your life and together we reframe difficult or troubling experiences.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
