About Katrina
Katrina Brown is an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Texas with eight years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, depression, and issues around blended families. Katrina focuses on practical steps that help clients find clearer thinking and steadier routines.
She trained with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy after completing a Bachelor of Arts at the University of Missouri-Columbia. Katrina’s background includes living in several Midwest states and working in St. Louis before relocating to Texas to be closer to family. That path brings practical perspective to transitions and family adjustments.
In sessions she listens closely and asks many questions to understand what is happening. She uses the Gottman Method among other approaches to look at how partners communicate and handle conflict. Katrina also works on patterns of thought that add stress, and she helps identify personal strengths clients can use.
When someone brings concerns about a stepfamily, co-parenting after separation, or mixed household routines, Katrina helps people sort priorities and set realistic steps forward. She guides clients through communication problems and the stress that comes with changing family roles. Practical tools and clear next steps are typical outcomes of her work.
Clients can expect focused, conversational sessions that emphasize understanding and actionable change. Katrina encourages people to take ownership of decisions and builds on what already works in their lives. Her approach is grounded in real-world concerns rather than abstract theory.
How Katrina’s approaches translate to online sessions
Many of Katrina’s methods are about improving everyday communication and reducing recurring stress. The Gottman Method focuses on clear communication patterns, conflict management, and rebuilding trust. It works well for people wanting concrete tools to change how they talk and problem-solve with a partner or household members.She also applies straightforward cognitive strategies that notice and challenge negative thought patterns. These techniques help with anxiety, low mood, and the stress that comes with blended family transitions by breaking big problems into small, doable steps.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Katrina will discuss goals, practical priorities, and how you prefer to work. Together you can try an approach, check what helps, and adjust the plan based on results and changing needs.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit conversations into a weekday break, reduce travel time, or choose a shorter check-in when life is busy. Licensed professionals can guide goal-setting, teach communication skills, and coach on parenting or household routines over virtual appointments.
