About Katrina

Katrina Millet is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 10 years of experience helping adults manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and life changes. She names guilt and shame among the concerns she addresses and works with people who are carrying those feelings from past or current situations.

Katrina uses several practical methods in sessions. She listens closely and helps people notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and then tests small behavior changes. She also draws on client-centered listening and mindfulness practices to build steady, present-moment awareness.

In a typical early session she asks what feels hardest right now and what has helped before. Together with the client she sets short, concrete goals. Sessions often include simple exercises to try between meetings so progress can be tracked week to week.

People come to her with many kinds of concerns, including attachment and abandonment worries, caregiving stress, chronic illness, substance and addiction issues, body image, and major life transitions such as separation or divorce. She also supports those coping with aging, cancer, or co-morbid health and mental health conditions.

Katrina works in English and practices in California as a CA LCSW. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where practical steps and personal reflection are both part of how problems are addressed.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions let the therapist and client use that listening to clarify values, priorities, and immediate concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses short experiments to test new ways of thinking and behaving; that work adapts well to remote sessions through written exercises and between-session tasks. Mindfulness Therapy builds attention to the present moment with simple practices that can be guided during a meeting and assigned as short daily exercises.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Katrina will talk with each client about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on what is most helpful for the person in front of her.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and support practicing skills in everyday settings. Licensed professionals can use video or phone-based meetings to make therapy more practical without changing the active work of identifying patterns, trying new behaviors, and building awareness.
