About
Katy Kong, LPC, provides focused and direct therapy for adults and couples across Texas, helping people take a clear-eyed look at the patterns that shape their reactions, choices, and relationships. She works best with clients who are ready to be honest about what is happening beneath the surface and who want support turning insight into lasting, practical change.
Many of the people she works with are thoughtful and capable, yet find themselves caught in repeating cycles such as defensiveness, withdrawal, over-functioning, or the same conflicts that never seem to get resolved. Her work is trauma-informed, meaning she pays close attention to how earlier experiences can influence present-day responses. Together, clients learn to notice patterns in real time, understand what those patterns may be protecting, and begin shifting them in a more intentional direction.
Katy also has extensive experience supporting adults navigating ADHD, especially when it impacts emotional regulation, communication, and self-esteem. In couples work, she focuses on identifying reactive cycles and strengthening clearer, more accountable communication. Therapy is structured, honest, and grounded in safety, with a pace that is challenging without becoming overwhelming for the client.

Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Katy Kong draws from approaches that help clients understand what drives their reactions and how to respond with more intention. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and ongoing relationship experiences can shape expectations, emotional needs, and closeness in adulthood, which can be especially useful when relationship patterns feel stuck or confusing.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and the behaviors that follow, then practicing new ways of responding. It can be a practical fit for concerns like stress, anxiety, self-esteem, and day-to-day overwhelm. For couples, the Gottman Method emphasizes skills that support healthier communication and accountability, including identifying reactive cycles and building clearer ways to address conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katy collaborates with clients to choose strategies that fit their goals, preferences, and pace, adjusting along the way as new insights emerge and needs change.
Online therapy makes it easier to access consistent support without adding extra travel time. Clients can meet by video calls or phone sessions, and they can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added flexibility between sessions and across busy weeks.
