About Katherine
Katherine Jones is an LMFT who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, mood swings, and relationship or intimacy struggles. She supports those managing ADHD, sleep problems, low self-esteem, career questions, and life transitions. She also works with people exploring gender identity, polyamory or non-monogamous relationships, and members of alternative sexual communities, including BDSM and kink.
She takes a strengths-based, personable approach that centers respect and acceptance. Sessions include attentive listening and practical skill-building. Katherine offers strategies drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and other evidence-based methods to bolster coping during hard moments.
In therapy she looks at both immediate concerns and the patterns that keep problems repeating. Conversations may cover relationship patterns, communication problems, impulsivity, isolation, and finding life purpose. She frames work around each person’s goals and rhythm rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Katherine has sixteen years of experience as a licensed marriage and family therapist in California. She pairs experience with a warm, hopeful stance and practical tools to help people make change. Her background includes helping young adults and women navigate transitions and emotional challenges.
Clients who identify as LGBT or who come from alternative communities will find an approach that respects difference while focusing on real-world coping skills. Katherine encourages exploration of identity, intimacy concerns, and communication in ways that fit each person’s values and life.
Her work blends talk-based reflection with concrete exercises for stress, panic, mood regulation, and relationship communication. The goal is steady progress toward clearer choices and better day-to-day functioning.
How mindfulness and skills work in online therapy
Katherine combines Mindfulness Therapy with Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to help people notice habits and make different choices. Mindfulness Therapy involves simple attention practices and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and help with anxiety, panic, and sleep problems. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationship experiences shape current patterns and can help with intimacy, trust, and relationship communication.
Client-Centered Therapy means the therapist listens closely and follows each person’s pace and values. Finding the right approach is collaborative - Katherine will help identify which methods fit a person’s goals and comfort. Together they decide whether to emphasize skills practice, relational exploration, or both.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins during workday breaks. It also supports continued momentum between in-person visits by letting people try exercises and skills in their everyday settings. Licensed professionals can adapt mindfulness exercises and DBT-informed strategies for use in online sessions to help with stress, mood regulation, and relationship challenges.
