Katherine Gross, LPC

Katherine Gross is a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas, holding an LPC credential that identifies her as a licensed mental health practitioner. She completed a Master of Science in Professional Counseling at Texas State University in 2011 and began practicing in January 2011. Over the course of her career she has worked with individuals of all ages, children, and couples who bring a wide range of life experiences and concerns.

During her clinical training Katherine completed an internship that included a bereavement group and work at a center serving families affected by trauma. She has received specialized training in Trust Based Relational Intervention and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which inform her work with clients facing loss, relational strain, and traumatic histories. Her primary clinical perspective draws from Person Centered Theory - often called client-centered therapy - and Narrative Therapy, approaches that prioritize the client’s voice and personal meaning.

Katherine aims to walk alongside clients with unconditional positive regard, genuineness, and authenticity, offering support and insight while honoring each person as the expert on their own life. She seeks to help individuals access their strengths and move toward growth, and she welcomes those who are ready to begin a healing journey.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Katherine Gross uses client-centered and narrative approaches alongside practical cognitive techniques to support people working through stress, trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, creating a space where a person’s own goals and insights guide the work and help with issues like self-esteem, relationship challenges, and coping with change.

Narrative therapy focuses on the stories people tell about their lives, helping individuals separate themselves from problems and rewrite unhelpful narratives to find new meaning and options. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers straightforward tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and daily stress management.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Katherine works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing a single path.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging adds flexibility and accessibility, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care from different locations with licensed professionals and therapists.
