About Katrina
Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with five years of experience, based in Illinois. Katrina Covington focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem issues, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting, and anger. She also has an additional focus on veteran and armed forces issues. Sessions are conducted in English.
Katrina draws primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Trauma-Focused Therapy. She uses clear, goal-oriented techniques to help people manage upsetting thoughts and reactions. She also adapts methods to match what each person needs in a given moment.
In practice she breaks problems into concrete steps. Clients work on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. With trauma-related concerns she uses focused approaches that address memories, triggers, and current coping skills.
Katrina’s background includes years spent connected to military communities through her own experience as a military spouse. That perspective informs how she understands stress linked to moves, deployments, and military culture. It also shapes how she talks about practical coping strategies and access to supports.
Sessions tend to be direct and structured, with homework or short exercises when useful. Katrina aims to help people build skills they can use day to day, for example managing panic, reducing avoidance, or improving communication at home. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

How CBT and trauma-focused methods translate to online work
Online sessions can use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions typically involve setting clear goals, practicing skills during the session, and assigning brief exercises to try between meetings. This approach is commonly used for anxiety, stress, depression, and managing cravings related to addictions.Trauma-Focused Therapy in an online setting focuses on reducing the impact of traumatic memories and learning new coping responses. Work often centers on understanding triggers, developing grounding and regulation skills, and gradually processing difficult experiences in manageable steps. This is applied when trauma or abuse is a primary concern.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT, trauma-focused techniques, or a combination is the best fit based on goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs shift.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use online sessions to keep continuity of care when schedules or location change, while focusing on practical skills that carry over into daily routines.
