About Katy
Katy Kong is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas with 13 years of experience. She offers direct, focused work for adults and couples who want to understand repeating patterns in relationships and behavior.
She often sees people who feel stuck in cycles such as defensiveness, withdrawal, over-functioning, or arguments that keep repeating. Katy uses a trauma-informed lens to notice how past experiences shape present reactions. That makes it easier to spot what those reactions are protecting and where change is possible.
Katy also works a great deal with adults navigating ADHD, especially when it affects emotional regulation, communication, or self-esteem. With couples she looks for reactive cycles and helps partners build clearer, more accountable ways of talking to each other. Anger is one of the concerns she lists and is addressed alongside communication and regulation skills.
Her sessions are structured and straightforward. She moves at a pace that challenges people without overwhelming them. Expect honest feedback, practical focus, and attention to how patterns show up in daily life.
Katy's approach blends attachment-based ideas with cognitive tools and narrative work to help people name patterns and try new behaviors. She also draws on couple-focused techniques to improve communication between partners. If someone is ready to look beyond surface conversation, Katy offers a practical path toward change.
How Katy's approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. Online sessions using attachment ideas help people notice patterns like withdrawal or defensiveness and practice different responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In remote sessions CBT techniques can include identifying triggers, testing thoughts, and trying small experiments between meetings to change responses.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means testing tools, reflecting on what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins across the week, not needing travel time, or joining from a quieter spot when work breaks allow it. These practical conveniences help people practice skills in real situations and bring observations back to sessions for concrete, usable feedback.
