About Katy
Katy Kong is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 13 years of experience. She offers focused, direct therapy for adults and couples, and lists concerns such as anxiety, relationship problems, family issues, parenting stress, ADHD, grief, depression, and addiction among her areas of work.
Her approach begins by looking at patterns learned in childhood and family of origin relationships. She pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions, and helps people notice cycles like withdrawal, defensiveness, or over-functioning as they occur. Identifying what those patterns are protecting is an early step in changing them.
Katy uses practical, structured work tailored to clear goals. She combines methods from attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral steps, narrative techniques, and couples-focused tools to address communication and reactivity. Sessions are straightforward and often include skills practice and concrete communication strategies.
She has particular experience helping adults who live with ADHD and those who struggle with emotional regulation, self-esteem, and interpersonal conflict. For people in relationships, she focuses on spotting reactive cycles and creating more accountable communication patterns. Katy also lists additional focuses such as abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, blended family issues, and caregiver stress.
Her style is direct and paced to be challenging without overwhelming. To begin a first meeting, prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the platform.
How Katy’s approaches translate to online work
Katy commonly draws on attachment-based work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and elements of the Gottman method. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence reactions now and helps people practice different ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety or improve mood. The Gottman method offers concrete communication skills and ways to interrupt reactive cycles in partnerships.Choosing a therapeutic approach is part of the process. Katy collaborates with each person to decide which combination of methods fits best for their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. She adjusts pace and emphasis as progress is made so the work stays challenging but manageable.
