Ka'Tora Dunn, LPCC, LPC

Ka'Tora Dunn, LPCC and LPC, brings six years of clinical experience and a calm, steady presence to therapy. She creates a welcoming space where adults and college-aged students can talk about stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, parenting concerns, and changes that come with different life stages. Her Christian faith informs how she shows up, while she also respects a wide range of beliefs and backgrounds.

She focuses on clear, practical steps during sessions rather than jargon. Ka'Tora listens first, then helps clients make sense of what feels chaotic. She offers straightforward tools for coping with strong emotions and for repairing communication in relationships.

Her background includes using approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy. In practice she adapts methods to match what each person needs and wants. Sessions aim to build emotional strength and reduce patterns that cause repeated stress.

Ka'Tora also helps people dealing with issues tied to adoption and foster care, abandonment, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and aging and geriatric issues. She pays attention to how past relationships shape current patterns and works with clients to change those patterns over time.

Therapy with her is described by clear pacing and respect for each person’s values. She balances empathy with gentle challenge when needed, and she supports clients in setting realistic goals and trying small changes between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that fit their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and replacing it with more helpful habits, which is often used for anxiety and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current connection patterns and can help with intimacy, caregiver stress, and family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Ka'Tora will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods that match those needs. This decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can shorten travel time, allow quicker check-ins between commitments, and let people choose session times that match their schedules. Some formats also use less bandwidth and can work well when a shorter, focused visit is helpful. Ask about the available session formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so you can pick what suits your routine and comfort level.
