Katherine Gross, LPC

Katherine Gross is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who uses clear, practical strategies to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship challenges. She works with adults on parenting concerns, career stress, self-esteem, and recovery from trauma and abuse. She emphasizes straightforward conversation and steady support.

Katherine brings 13 years of practice to sessions. She earned a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Texas State University and completed clinical internships that included bereavement groups and a center serving people affected by trauma. That background informs her approach to loss and attachment concerns.

Her way of working centers on client-centered principles and narrative techniques. She helps people tell and rethink their stories, identify unhelpful patterns, and try small, practical changes that make daily life easier. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is among the methods she uses to address anxious thoughts and mood challenges.

Katherine also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationships and family history shape current struggles. She helps parents and individuals sort through blended family issues, adoption and foster care questions, and attachment wounds without using technical language or jargon.

Sessions focus on concrete goals and doable steps. Katherine offers compassion and direct feedback while treating each person as the expert on their life. For someone juggling work, parenting, or big life transitions, she helps build coping skills and clearer choices.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people identify connection needs and repair ways of relating that cause distress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to reduce anxiety, panic, and low mood. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance where the therapist follows the person's lead and supports their own solutions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Katherine will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, and she adjusts techniques as progress is made. That means trying a few options, tracking what helps, and changing course if something is not working.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use body language and visual cues, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and busy schedules while still focusing on meaningful change.
