Katy Kong, LPC

Katy Kong is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who offers focused, direct therapy for adults and couples across Texas. She invites people ready to look honestly at their patterns to work toward clearer communication and better emotional regulation.

Her approach emphasizes spotting the cycles that keep people stuck - things like defensiveness, withdrawal, over-functioning, or repeating arguments. She describes her work as trauma-informed, meaning she pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions. Hearing what a pattern is protecting can make it easier to choose something different.

Katy has extensive experience helping adults who have ADHD, especially when attention differences affect emotions, communication, or self-esteem. With couples she concentrates on identifying reactive cycles and building more accountable communication that replaces blame and escalation.

She also supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, addiction concerns, intimacy problems, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include caregiver stress, adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and aging and geriatric issues among others. Her work spans mood concerns such as depression and bipolar symptoms as well as relational struggles.

Therapy with Katy is described as structured and honest. Sessions move at a pace aimed to be challenging without being overwhelming. To begin, prospective clients use the site process to match and schedule sessions that fit their needs.

How attachment work and CBT translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people see how early relationships shape current patterns. It focuses on emotions and connection, which can help with relationship cycles and caregiver stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related struggles. Narrative Therapy invites clients to tell and reframe their stories, helping with identity, loss, and life transitions.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Katy will collaborate with each person to match goals, needs, and preferences to an approach or combination of approaches. That decision is revisited as progress is made so the plan can shift when needed.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people join from wherever they are in Texas, which can help maintain continuity of care during life changes. Katy uses her clinical approaches to adapt exercises and conversations so work done online still focuses on real-world changes and relationship improvements.
