About Katina
Dr. Katina Hill-Thompson is a Florida licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing relationship strain, mood problems, trauma, and parenting stress. She writes short, practical plans and focuses on clear steps people can use between sessions.
Her style is warm and respectful, aimed at making the first steps easier for someone who feels overwhelmed. With 22 years of experience she has worked with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar mood issues, and anger.
Background and approach
She also helps people dealing with attachment and abandonment worries, family-of-origin problems, and communication breakdowns. Sessions address both immediate coping and longer-term patterns that keep problems returning. Her approach blends Attachment-Based Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques.
She uses elements of cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy when helpful. In practice this means practical skills, values-focused work, and steady attention to how relationships shape feelings. People can expect a collaborative process where goals are set together and adjusted as progress happens.
She emphasizes skill building for stress, self-esteem, and relationship communication. Trauma and intimacy concerns are handled at a pace each person can tolerate. Dr.
Hill-Thompson offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. She works by phone, video, live chat, and text messaging, and tailors communication to fit a client's routine and preferences.

Online support
How attachment work and skills translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. It helps people notice patterns of connection and distance and practice new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and to take concrete steps toward what matters most. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions where values-driven change is the goal. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, allowing sessions to follow what feels most important while the therapist offers empathy and reflection.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, history, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted over time so techniques that aren’t helping are dropped and those that help are expanded.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial expressions and work in real time, while phone calls can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support short check-ins, coaching between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
