Katy Kong, LPC

Katy Kong is an LPC who provides focused, direct therapy for adults and couples across Texas. She invites people who are ready to look honestly at the patterns shaping their reactions and relationships. Sessions aim to make repetitive cycles easier to recognize and change. Katy's approach is straightforward and grounded in a sense of safety.

Katy often works with thoughtful, capable people who feel stuck in repeating patterns like defensiveness, withdrawal, or over-functioning. She pays close attention to how past experiences and trauma affect present reactions. This trauma-informed perspective helps clients see what their patterns are protecting and where change is possible.

She has extensive experience supporting adults navigating ADHD, especially when it affects emotional regulation, communication, and self-esteem. With couples, she focuses on identifying reactive cycles and building clearer, more accountable communication that reduces recurring conflict.

Therapy with Katy is structured and honest. She balances challenge with a pace that avoids overwhelm. Clients should expect practical conversation aimed at real change rather than staying on the surface.

With 13 years in practice, Katy brings steady clinical experience to issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship problems. Her work also covers intimacy concerns, addictions, caregiver stress, and a broad range of attachment and family-related topics. She practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English.

How Katy's Approaches Translate to Online Work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and closeness. It helps people identify patterns of pulling away or clinging and build more secure ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical tools to manage anxiety, stress, and mood by changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. The Gottman Method centers on how couples communicate and manage conflict, using clear steps to reduce reactive cycles and improve accountability.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Katy discusses your needs, goals, and preferences and then helps choose which methods to use. She adjusts the work as you go so the approach fits your life and what you want to change.
