Therapists in Kemah, TX

On the outside, you’re doing all the things that you’re supposed to. You’re nailing it at your job, you’re doing some fun things in life, and you’ve got some relationships filling your bucket. But on the inside, you feel like your childhood and the past is following you around like your shadow. It feels like it all happened so long ago, but it’s affecting and tainting the NOW. You feel so unsettled, anxious, and on edge most of the time…and it’s exhausting. You just want to feel like your childhood, and what you’ve been through in the past, is finally put to rest. Put to rest in a way where you feel 10x lighter and carefree.

I have worked with a diverse set of populations providing trauma therapy and neurofeedback therapy. Throughout my career, I have built trauma-focused programs at different mental health organizations. With a passion for working with combat veterans, I have also been a contracted Neurofeedback clinician with the Lone Survivor Foundation to serve those that served our nation. I led a trauma team in the Santa Fe District to implement systems and provide trauma-wellness counseling services to students and staff in the district in response to the May 18th mass violence tragedy at Santa Fe High School.

At one time or another, we all face challenges in our lives. Some of these issues may become too complex for us to handle alone. These struggles and life challenges may never go away. And the past can feel like the present. However, things can improve, and the difficulties you are currently struggling with can be resolved with therapy. Seeking counseling may be the first step towards restoring peace and happiness in your life. It is essential to find the right therapist for you. I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and support you throughout your journey.

So many of us are suffering because we are unconsciously holding on to limiting beliefs and maladaptive coping behaviors that have helped us to survive in the past, but are no longer serving us in the present. We fear our own shadow and conceal parts of us that we have been taught not to like - the parts that make us human. This causes our actions to be driven by fear, doubt, and shame rather than freedom, confidence, and love. You have the power to be the person who takes up space confidently, honor your needs, and live from a place of freedom and unconditional love.

So often we live our lives "stuck." Stuck in the same patterns of thinking, the same unhealthy habits, the same problems in our relationships. Our best efforts may not be enough to free us. Other times, our lives are disrupted by unexpected difficulties, like loss, trauma, or infidelity. The process of counseling can be both challenging and life-changing, and is frequently a means which provides refuge, freedom, and restoration in relationship. Whatever your present difficulties, we are dedicated to partnering with you by offering a genuine, caring relationship, quality interventions, and an unwavering hope for healing.

“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.

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.

As a board-certified Neurotherapist by the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance, I provide QEEG brain-mapping and Neurofeedback training for clients. I believe that your treatment should encompass emotional, mental, physiological, psychosocial and behavioral needs. Neurofeedback will improve your brain's flexibility, strength, and endurance. Through Neurofeedback, your emotional, and cognitive states improve as well as your mental performance. Some clients have also found it as an alternative to medication.

Life is challenging and continuously changing. These changes can be unexpected, unplanned and can leave one feeling stressed, worried, anxious, and depressed. As your therapist you are not alone, I can provide a supportive and empathetic environment. I will work together with you to guide you through a journey of self-exploration and discovery to achieve a deeper understanding about yourself. While at the same time recognizing your natural gifts and unique talents as an individual. I believe that life experiences shape who we are as individuals and that we are able to re-write our own story.
