Teletherapy for Galleria-Uptown - Houston, TX

Welcome to my Therapist BIO page. I am glad you are here! My number one priority as a Texas Licensed Professional Counselor is to help you meet your therapy goals! Over the last seven years I have provided care and treatment to individuals looking for similar support as yourself. I have worked with minor children, adolescents, young adults, individuals, couples, married couples, families, groups, veterans, and the senior community all for the same reasons; to provide care and treatment during challenging times.

“It can be scary to start this journey, but it is also scary to be stuck forever. There is a life where you get to have more control and peace. You are not alone and whenever you are ready, we can begin working together towards your healing.” Creating a life worth living may take working through wounds. Kateri is EMDR certified, which aids people becoming unstuck from their traumas. It provides healthier thinking patterns and coping skills for survivors of trauma to move forward with their lives and gain new perspectives that better serve their desired goals. Traumas may lead to anxiety, addictions, chronic issues & illnesses.

Life is stressful and full of events that make us anxious and sad at times. Even our relationships can be full of challenges such as issues with communication and connection. Or maybe you're experiencing a crisis of your faith, religious or cultural beliefs. Whatever source of turmoil you're facing, know that I am here to help. As a therapist, I specialize in guiding clients toward understanding their triggers and developing practical coping skills. With a secure and compassionate environment, we can work together towards finding the solutions that are best for you.

Are you trying to find balance in your life? Are you having difficulty maintaining healthy relationships with others? Do you constantly worry about things and feel overwhelmed? Knowing where to go and seeking help for dealing with these life issues is not easy. I believe therapy is a collaborative process for helping individuals to identify resources and solutions for their areas of concern. I work alongside individuals to help them change their ways of thinking about various aspects of their life, enhance coping skills, their response to stressors, and improve relationships.

Are you struggling with making sense of the things life has thrown at you? Do you feel isolated, anxious or confused over things that have happened recently or years ago? Do you have a history of complex trauma? I believe each client is unique with purpose and gifts and in therapy, we work to make sense of your past, improve your present and move you toward a future that feels hopeful for you. My specialization is treating trauma, PTDS, anxiety disorders, complex grief and parents of children with special needs. I have extensive experience in treating addictions, mood disorders, life transitions, spirituality, and women's issues.

New seasons offer a fresh start to tackle our goals. Whether it be managing stress, processing trauma, overcoming social anxiety, building self-esteem, or dealing with imposter syndrome, it's not too late to find a listening ear. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change. I aim to create a safe and open environment that allows the freedom of self-exploration without fear of judgement.

My experience and training revolve around four major areas: anxiety, depression, trauma, and cancer.

I view therapy as a collaborative effort and continually seek out feedback as to how treatment is progressing.

My background and training include working with those experiencing anxiety and depression as well as significant co-occurring mental health challenges and substance use disorders. I also enjoy working with adolescents and young adults as they encounter the opportunities and challenges associated with transitioning to adulthood and seek and develop identity, purpose, competence, and independence. Goals that you identify will guide our solutions-focused work together.
