About Catherine
Catherine Gentry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who uses practical, person-focused therapy to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and depression.

Her style is collaborative and respectful. Catherine treats the client as the expert on their own life. She listens for what matters most and tailors practical strategies to fit daily life.
Common topics she addresses include attachment struggles, codependency, dissociation, guilt, and feelings of emptiness. She also helps people explore life purpose and heal from past harms that still affect day-to-day functioning.

Therapeutic approaches that fit work and life
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking and practice different responses to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, teaches skills for accepting difficult emotions while clarifying values and taking committed action. It can help when stress, avoidance, or uncertainty are getting in the way of meaningful work and relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. This happens collaboratively, with regular check-ins to adjust the plan if something isn’t working.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow quick check-ins on a work break. Some formats lend themselves to focused skill practice without a long commute, while others may be better for longer therapeutic work. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about what will fit your routine and goals.
