Her work experiences include working with individuals, couples and families. She also has worked with ill people whose mental well-being has deteriorated while suffering from prolonged medical sickness.
Her passion has been always to listen to people and to guide them to make the right decisions in their lives. She believes that individuals have the power to change their lives for the better as they are the experts of their own life. Those positive changes not only effect the individual, but also people who are connected to them. As it might be sometimes difficult to think optimistically, the power of positive thinking can overcome many obstacles.
Katrina believes the first step to emotional growth and success is to overcome one’s fears, addictions, depression, and anxiety, by engaging in therapy and understanding that to achieve desired goals require commitment during the process.
