Katherine Hodges, Graduate Associate
Supervised by Stacie Robertson MA, LMFT-S
Katherine Hodges is a graduate student at St. Edward's University, specializing in couple and family counseling. She is especially passionate about helping people connect and communicate more meaningfully with family, friends and community. She believes that healing happens when an individual is able to express and be their unique self more fully in relation to others. Katherine brings a sense of deep respect, curiosity, and wonder to her practice, and is ready to work together to help clients realize their goals.
Katherine moved to Austin 20 years ago to attend graduate school at UT Austin. Along the route to becoming a counselor, she worked as a biochemist, professional modern dance choreographer and health-educator. These and other life experiences impact the way she shows up in the counseling room- integrating creative and expressive interventions with more structured problem solving approaches. She believes that the work of counseling is a highly collaborative process, similar in some ways to creating a work of art together, and it calls for an individualized approach, tailored to each unique client and the strengths they bring.
When she’s not working at Austin Family Institute or finishing up her last few classes at St. Edward's, Katherine enjoys kayaking, hiking, gardening, cooking, watercolor painting, playing board games with friends and family, amateur stargazing and taking the occasional modern dance class.
