Hi, I’m Katerine Lickteig, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with over 15 years of experience. I hold a Master’s degree from Prairie View University and specialize in helping individuals of all ages overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. As a certified EMDR therapist, I have successfully worked with clients to heal from past trauma.
I describe myself as a “hope dealer” with a passion for mental health. Over the past six years, I’ve worked with TDCJ, nonprofits, and juvenile justice systems, gaining experience in abuse and neglect, trauma, substance misuse, anger management, recovery support, and women’s and veterans’ issues.
I provide Mental Health Counseling, Substance Misuse Counseling, Anger Management services, Trauma-Informed Care, Drug & Alcohol Screenings, Assessments, Referrals, SASSIs, and DOT Assessments.
Grounded in ethics, creativity, and compassion, my approach feels like a conversation at your kitchen table—supportive, safe, and nonjudgmental. I walk with you step by step as you heal, grow, and reclaim hope.
I specialize in working with people with Anxiety, Phobias, PTSD, Adjustment Disorders and Codependency. I also work with people on setting and maintaining boundaries, goal-setting, assertiveness training, communication skills, changing thoughts and behaviors and coping skills. I provide support when you are in crisis, need help with parenting skills and work with you to reduce symptoms that affect your everyday life. If you want to incorporate bible scripture or prayer, I am happy to provide this support! If requested, sessions can include walking, movement, meeting inside or outside the office.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in helping children, adolescents, and families navigate anxiety, behavioral challenges, emotional outbursts, school stress, low self-esteem, social difficulties, and major life transitions. I understand that when a child is struggling, the whole family can feel the impact. My goal is to provide support not only for your child, but for you as a parent as well.
Choosing a therapist is an important and personal decision. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and respected, while also helping you make meaningful and lasting changes.
I am a licensed psychotherapist with over 10 years of experience, and I specialize in trauma-informed, evidence-based care. As a prior military service member, I have a deep understanding of military culture and the unique stressors faced by service members, veterans, and their families. I work with both military and civilian clients who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, sleep and pain challenges, substance use concerns, relationship stress, and major life transitions.
Life is a Journey. On this Journey we're faced with many twists & turns. My practice style is collaborative in nature. It focuses on joint commitment to change. Yet eclectic enough to incorporate different approaches that will help clients as they write and re-write their stories to transform their reality. Whether you are looking to address LGBTQ issues, individual therapy, family or couples therapy, intimate partner violence, sexual abuse, addictions, depression or other mental health issues.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Odessa, TX
Searching for therapists in Odessa starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People often look for therapy in Odessa, TX for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists and counselors in Odessa, review each person’s listed specialties, therapy style, and experience with concerns like yours. Some therapists may use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, while others focus on couples counseling, marriage counseling, or grief counseling.
In a smaller city like Odessa, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Texas markets, so virtual therapy can help expand your choices. Some people prefer meeting in person near work, school, or home, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, look at whether a therapist is accepting new clients, how soon they have availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can also help you understand how they describe their approach, communication style, and what sessions may look like.
Therapy in Odessa can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and make mental health care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
