About Gene

Gene Katz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 14 years of clinical experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, and sexuality-related concerns. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions and aims to make the first step feel manageable for anyone reaching out.

He uses a tailored, conversational approach to fit each person’s needs. Sessions focus on the issues you bring, such as relationship strain, intimacy-related concerns, or panic attacks. He listens first, then helps set clear goals and practical steps to try between meetings.

Gene draws on client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in your priorities. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and panic. Existential ideas are woven in when people are wrestling with meaning, life purpose, or midlife questions.

His practice pays attention to communication problems, isolation or loneliness, and challenges around forgiveness or impulsivity. He can help people navigate divorce and separation and the emotional fallout that follows. He also supports issues tied to gender and sexuality, including LGBT concerns, in a nonjudgmental way.

Gene encourages straightforward talk and practical adjustments. Sessions aim to be useful in everyday life, giving tools you can try between meetings. To begin, follow the site process to match and schedule a session that fits your needs.

How these approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the session on what matters most to the person seeking help. The therapist listens for your priorities and adjusts the conversation and pacing to reflect them. This approach is useful for building trust and making therapy feel relevant to daily concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It offers concrete strategies to manage anxiety, panic attacks, and patterns that keep stress high. CBT often includes short exercises to practice between meetings so progress can be tracked.

Existential Therapy focuses on questions of meaning, life purpose, and values. It can help when people feel stuck in midlife transitions or struggle with loneliness and identity issues. The approach encourages honest reflection and choices that line up with personal values.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their situation, and adjust tactics based on experience and preference.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins during a lunch break or sessions without travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques like CBT exercises and client-centered conversation to remote sessions so therapy stays practical and focused on everyday challenges.
