Katherine Holloway, LMFT

Katherine Holloway is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Washington. She brings 20 years of experience helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and issues with self-esteem. She also works with people facing jealousy, workplace strain, life-purpose questions, and concerns linked to military service and aging.

Katherine uses clear, goal-focused work in sessions. She helps people set practical goals, try new ways of handling problems, and build a toolbox of everyday skills. Conversations are direct but warm so clients can say what they think and feel without extra judgment.

Her background includes a degree in conflict management and communication. That training shows up in how she approaches difficult conversations and problem solving. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally-focused methods, mindfulness, solution-focused techniques, and trauma-focused practices.

Katherine emphasizes collaboration. She and the person in therapy decide together which strategies to try and which goals to set. Progress is tracked with small, achievable steps so people can see change as they go.

She encourages anyone feeling stuck to reach out and begin the intake process. The first steps are filling out a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability, which helps match goals with the right next steps.

How therapeutic approaches work in online care

Katherine commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally-focused methods, and mindfulness approaches. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-focused approaches focus on understanding and expressing emotions to improve how people relate to themselves and others. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm and presence.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Katherine will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. She helps people decide what feels most useful and practical for their day-to-day life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness and skill practice from their usual routines, so new strategies are more likely to stick.
