About Katrina
Katrina Covington is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with five years of clinical experience. She practices in Illinois and works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, addictions, grief, parenting strain, relationship problems, family issues, and anger.
Katrina draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a primary tool. She uses straightforward, skills-based work to help people notice thought patterns and change unhelpful behaviors. She also applies trauma-focused methods when past events are a central part of what keeps someone stuck.
Her background includes years supporting both military and civilian communities as a military spouse, and she lists Veteran and Armed Forces Issues as an additional focus area. That experience informs her familiarity with military-related stressors and transitions without assuming every client has that background.
In sessions she aims for practical steps and clear tools. That can mean learning breathing and grounding techniques, testing new ways of responding to conflict, or trying short behavioral experiments between meetings. Conversations tend to be direct and focused on what clients want to change.
Katrina notes that therapy is collaborative. She helps people set goals and tracks small changes over time. To begin, clients use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Katrina uses CBT and trauma-focused methods online
CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online sessions can walk clients through thought records, activity planning, and brief behavioral experiments to reduce anger and anxiety. Trauma-focused therapy looks at the impact of past events and uses grounding and pacing to help lessen their influence on daily reactions.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Katrina works with each person to decide whether CBT, trauma-focused work, or a mix will best address the goals. She checks in on progress and adjusts techniques based on what helps most in real life.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around work, family, or busy days. It also allows shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and makes it simpler to try tools between sessions without travel. Licensed professionals and therapists commonly use these practical advantages to keep therapy consistent with everyday life.
