About

Hello! My name is Kateri Ross and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Rancho Cordova, California, and working with clients via telehealth. I work with adolescents and adults specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, anger, relationship issues, life transitions, and physical health issues. I utilize an array of therapeutic modalities based on what is the best fit for my clients' needs and goals. I primarily implement Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Strength Based Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients navigate through challenges, explore and process difficult emotions, build resilience, and foster growth. My approach My approach to therapy is "person-centered" and is tailored to match the individual needs and goals of each client, ensuring therapy feels personalized and relevant to you. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, as both modalities aim to provide you with the tools and strategies that are most effective for your specific needs and goals. My focus My focus is working with adolescents, young adults, and adults, who may be dealing with the challenges of life and in relationships. This often takes the form of anxiety, phobias, fears, worries, panic, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, depression, self-esteem issues, trauma, anger, motivation issues, life transitions, relationship issues, stress, and physical health-related issues. My communication style My practice is characterized by a client-first philosophy and an emphasis on empathy. I genuinely believe in the transformative power of a therapeutic relationship rooted in trust, understanding, and compassion. While I implement a directive approach, it is my goal to create a warm, friendly, humorous, open, and supportive environment where you can feel seen, heard, understood, and validated.
