About Katherine
Katherine Holloway is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Washington with 20 years of experience. She works with adults around stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and self-esteem issues.
She also pays attention to blended family issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, and family of origin matters. Katherine draws on methods that help people set clear goals and build practical skills. Sessions focus on finding workable steps and expanding the client’s coping toolbox.
Her background includes a degree in Conflict Management and Communication, which informs how she approaches tense conversations and co-parenting dynamics. She uses structured techniques to break down unhelpful patterns and teach different ways of responding to conflict.
Trauma-focused approaches are part of her work when trauma or post-traumatic stress is present. She pairs those methods with cognitive behavioral ideas to reduce distressing symptoms and with mindfulness practices to help people notice and manage difficult feelings.
Katherine aims for straightforward, problem-focused sessions where clients and the therapist set goals together. She encourages practical exercises people can use between meetings. Individuals reading this who are in stepfamilies, negotiating parenting with an ex, or trying to merge routines may find her approach directly applicable.
How therapeutic approaches are used online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that increase stress or anxiety. It breaks problems into manageable steps and teaches concrete skills people can practice between sessions.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions that drive relationship interactions. It is useful when communication breaks down or when partners and parents want clearer ways to express needs and respond to one another.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve moment-to-moment awareness. It pairs well with cognitive strategies to calm intense feelings and support steady decision making.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and the specific problems they bring. That process usually begins by setting clear, short-term goals and checking what helps after a few sessions.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many clients find it helpful to practice skills at home between meetings and then review how those exercises went during the next session.
