About Katrina
Katrina Brown is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people facing stress, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and life transitions. She writes plainly and listens closely, asking questions to understand each person’s situation. Katrina aims to help clients name strengths and take small steps toward clearer thinking and greater calm.
Katrina earned a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Missouri-Columbia and a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy. She practiced in St. Louis before moving to Texas to be nearer family and currently holds a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential, LMFT.
In sessions she uses practical techniques to challenge negative thought patterns and surface helpful perspectives. She focuses on problem-solving that people can use between meetings, and she encourages ownership of the change process. Katrina is a strong listener who balances support with thoughtful questions.
She commonly helps people managing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, and compassion fatigue. Parenting and family concerns are a regular focus, including blended family issues, communication problems, and divorce or separation transitions. She also supports those facing career stress, addiction-related concerns, intimacy-related issues, anger, and coping with ADHD.
Her approach aims to be direct and manageable for busy lives. Katrina works with clients to set concrete goals and build everyday tools for coping, so improvements can show up outside the therapy room as well.
