Kristin Katz

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Skokie, IL


If you’re looking for a therapist who quietly nods for 50 minutes, I may not be the best fit. My style is active, engaged, direct, and deeply relational.

I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, life transitions, and difficult interpersonal dynamics. Clients often describe feeling both genuinely supported and meaningfully challenged in our work together.

I believe therapy should help people gain insight, shift patterns, improve relationships, and move toward lasting change not just vent for an hour each week.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Aurora

Finding the right therapist in Aurora, IL starts with identifying what you need help with. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LCSW, LCPC, LMFT, or psychologist — who specializes in the areas that matter most to you. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match before your first session.

Aurora has a range of mental health providers, but narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most: a specific therapy style, scheduling flexibility, or whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions. On Headway, you can review provider profiles, see who is accepting new patients, and book directly.

Therapy in Aurora can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits your needs and your budget.
