Katherine Austin

I am trained in emotionally focused therapy (EFT) for couples. It aims to get to the root of what leaves a relationship feeling unsatisfying and disconnected. Its goal is safety and security in the relationship, with honesty and vulnerability as the route to closeness.

My name is Katherine (Kat) Austin, and I practice, in person and through online therapy, as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Licensed Professional Counselor in Boulder, Colorado. In family therapy, I help families improve communication and harmony by recognizing patterns that are unhealthy and working to change them. I offer individual therapy to adolescents and young adults as they move through that stage.

That work can build a sense of individuality, resilience, self-awareness and coping skills. In my addiction work, we look at the reasons underneath a client’s substance use, including whether it works as a maladaptive coping strategy for difficult feelings. I also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).
