Ocean Springs, MS 39564
My name is Katryna. My strengths include working with children and their families on communication and behavior. I use techniques of play and sand tray therapy as well as methods integrating art and music. Together, we can create transformation. Using aspects of The Children's Success Foundation of The Nurtured Heart Approach, we change the language of communication. NHA is not a quick fix or temporary improvement. It is a transformation of communication, boundaries, and respect.

I believe people of all ages need various modalities to express internal and external turmoils. I want clients to gain a sense of emotional, mental, and physical stability when facing situations in life. For children and tweens, I provide a safe compassionate “world” for them to express their concerns and needs in a play-themed environment. For adolescents and adults, I offer a confidential, non-judgmental setting and provide unbiased support using both talk and creative expressive therapies until wholeness is attained.

The therapeutic journey is one that requires commitment and a bond that leads to trust and understanding. My goal is to provide each individual I serve an environment that is safe and confidential to share their story and true self. I use a person-centered, strength-based approach that puts you in the driver seat of your own treatment and I am the facilitator guiding you through each step. I believe that the feelings we experience (sadness, anger, fear, frustration, etc.) can be linked back to a root cause that needs to be addressed. I help you uncover, address, and cope with those circumstances.

As a counselor I have the honor of offering hope to my clients when they may not have any for themselves. My desire is to be a resource for them in this journey of life and to be one of the avenues for God to accomplish His purposes in them. My counseling practice incorporates a distinctly Christian worldview into my methods and practices; however I do work with clients from all backgrounds. My goal is to respect the individual beliefs of each person I work with and to help them using the truths we have through Scripture.

I’m the therapist for people who “don’t like therapy”. Many of the people I see are completely new to this process or have had negative past experiences. Perhaps, that is you. I firmly believe that “good therapy” derives from the relationship between a person and their therapist. It’s the cornerstone for all work. Therefore, I do my best to creates a space that feels both safe and comfortable, while providing an experience that is authentic, relatable and non-judgmental.

The motto for my practice, “Therapy that balances nurture and challenge,” means I accept you unconditionally, even the parts of you that may be associated with shame or rejection and I believe that you're always moving towards growth. The safety created in our relationship allows you space to try on new behaviors or choices or beliefs… in short, the relationship helps you grow. I believe that therapeutic work involves understanding your patterns of behavior to allow for intentional choices about your future. I work with clients of all ages to identify their primary concerns and propose treatment based on those concerns.
