Katherine Holloway, LMFT

Katherine Holloway is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Washington. She has 20 years of clinical experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strains, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and low self-esteem. Katherine also keeps aging and geriatric issues among her areas of focus.

She received a degree in Conflict Management and Communication and brings that background into sessions. Katherine works with clients to set clear goals and build practical skills they can use between visits. Her aim is to expand each person's toolbox so they have more ways to handle difficult moments.

In sessions she uses techniques from cognitive behavioral approaches and trauma-focused methods to reduce distressing symptoms. She also draws on emotionally-focused and solution-focused ideas to strengthen connections and find workable changes. Mindfulness practices are included when they fit a client's goals.

Katherine describes therapy as a collaborative process. She helps people talk through what matters most and choose strategies that match their life. Her style is direct but warm, focused on practical steps rather than jargon.

Many clients come for help after hard events or during big life transitions. Katherine supports people who want clearer communication, healthier routines, and relief from persistent worry. She invites prospective clients to take the first step and explore whether her approach feels like a good fit.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Many of her methods adapt well to remote sessions, and she often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-based, useful for anxiety, stress, and mood concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding emotions and improving connection, which can help with relationship strains and communication problems. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as progress is made. That way clients play an active role in shaping what therapy looks like.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session formats before booking. Many people find remote work helpful because it can fit more easily into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and make short check-ins more practical. Online sessions also allow some people to practice skills in their everyday environment and bring real-life examples directly into session.
