01About Gene
Gene Katz is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 14 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, sexuality and intimacy concerns, and issues that affect relationships. He aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while tailoring conversations and plans to each person's situation.
Gene helps people talk through sexually based issues and concerns tied to LGBT identity. He also supports those dealing with panic attacks, trauma symptoms, and problems with impulsivity.
Background and approach
Sessions often address isolation, loneliness, and the search for life purpose. His work draws on client-centered methods that start with the individual's priorities. Cognitive behavioral tools are used to identify unhelpful thinking and develop more effective habits.
Existential ideas are introduced to help clarify values and life direction when that feels unclear. In a typical session, Gene listens closely, reflects what he hears, and helps set small practical steps toward change. He will collaborate on a plan that fits a person’s goals and pace.
The approach balances direct problem-solving with space to consider deeper questions about meaning and identity. Taking a first step can feel risky, and Gene frames his role as supportive rather than directive. He encourages honest conversation and gradual progress toward clearer relationships, calmer days, and greater self-acceptance.

04Online support
Using client-centered and CBT ideas in online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding where a person is coming from and responding with empathy and nonjudgmental listening. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to clarify what matters most to them.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence emotions and practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic attacks, and managing stress through specific exercises and experiments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Gene will collaborate with each person to choose which methods to use based on their goals and preferences. He balances talking through immediate concerns with trying small practice steps between sessions so progress can be tracked together.
Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so please confirm current options before booking.

It can also let people join from a variety of everyday locations when that helps them keep therapy consistent.
