About Katherine

Katherine Malcolm is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, parenting challenges, relationship and family concerns, grief, sleeping problems, anger, career questions, bipolar conditions, and coping with life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and intended for clients located in Florida.

Katherine helps clients untangle strong emotions and practical problems. She supports people processing trauma, managing panic, and sorting family dynamics. She also works with clients on body image, postpartum concerns, adoption and foster care experiences, and blended family adjustments.

Her practice uses approaches that focus on emotions and attachment. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Attachment-Based Therapy are part of her work alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques. These methods are used to notice patterns, identify unspoken feelings, and try different ways of relating to oneself and others.

In sessions she listens, reflects what she hears, and helps set small, manageable goals. Conversations include skill-building for mood regulation, practical strategies for sleep and stress, and communication practice for difficult conversations. She also helps people sort decisions around career or relationship transitions.

Katherine emphasizes collaborative planning. She and each client decide together which techniques to use, and progress is reviewed as therapy continues. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the See online therapy options button.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on noticing and naming feelings and how they shape relationships. It helps people identify interaction patterns and practice new ways of responding to hard emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current reactions and aims to build more secure ways of relating to others. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting, giving clients space to lead the conversation while the therapist provides support and understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katherine will discuss goals and preferences with each person and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape session pacing, exercises, and practical homework between meetings.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people choose whether to use video or another supported format depending on comfort, bandwidth, and what works best for practicing skills and talking through emotional material.
