Katki Windsor, LMFT

I contacted her to ask about a consultation and her availability. She was slow to respond to my message on her PT link, but she eventually sent a text. We texted back and forth for just a few minutes. When I inquired about her consultations, I received very curt and uninviting responses, as if she were annoyed to be answering my few brief questions. I asked about her availability, and she disappeared from the conversation. I sent a follow-up text a couple of hours later but still received no reply. I gave up and looked elsewhere. I was very turned off at a time when all I wanted was someone to talk to. She has good reviews on this site, but my experience with her was not good.

She helped me through some really painful things. I can’t say enough good things about her.

I would and have recommended Katki to family and friends. She is very kind patient and has helped me immensely. I feel very fortunate to have found Katki and I'm finding EMDR therapy a very effective method for dealing with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and PTSD.

She was rude and unprofessional -- she told me her therapy was not working for me because I "wasn't trying hard enough." She is also extremely defensive. She treats her patients like children she is scolding.

I was very disappointed to never even start a session due to how unorganized she was. Her voicemail alone was very difficult to understand. Then after she asked me what days and times work best, she tells me a completely different day. She sent me the Zoom "invitation" and 9:01, when the visit was scheduled for 9:00. Yet, she tries to rush me and when I tell her I just got it and am trying to log on, she says she sent it before. I wrote invitation in quotation marks because she just sent me a picture of her screen showing the meeting id and passcode. I was honest with her and told her it was very difficult for me to reach out for services and the unorganization wasn't a good fit for me because the uncertainty of not getting the information with time gave me anxiety, and she responds with a "wow..." and an excuse. NO effort to even try to make a comfortable and safe space. As someone who works in the mental health field myself, this was not a good or professional experience.

I appreciate katki for her therapy she helped me through a very tough time I was going through divorce severe depression she helped me get through it all and I was still able to advance in my work I'm a 50 year old man Jesse if you have doubts about therapy katki she helped me

Katki has helped my 8 year old so much. She is welcoming and inviting and tries different techniques to truly help. My daughter feels so comfortable seeing her. We just love her!

I highly recommend Katki for your counseling needs. She has been a tremendous help to both of my children, 11 years old and 12 years old. I am also a healthcare professional and can tell you that it is not a common occurrence to come into contact with someone so professional, so effective, and with genuine concern and follow through. I can tell she really cares about my children and their needs. We're very fortunate to have someone like her in Gilroy, and accessible to other cities around. One of her specialties, is EMDR, which is a fantastic and effective method for dealing with PTSD, bullying, depression, anxiety, unhealthy habits, nightmares, low self-esteem, etc. What a blessing she has been and continues to be!

My child was welcomed by Katki in such a way that he instantly felt comfortable. She has made a big difference in his perspective. I am grateful to have been referred to Katki. My son is getting closer to feeling better. His improvement has been quickly attained too. Thank you Katki!

I very much appreciate Katki and her work. She explored different techniques that would be suitable for my situation after emphatically listening to my story. She provide not only psycho-education behind the specific technique of EMDR (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing) but applied it effortlessly. Thank you so much!

Very comfortable environment. Makes it easy to open up and talk.

Katki is so relatable. She makes you feel at ease and helps you work through whatever is weighing you down. She will always be straight with you. I am so glad she is working with my family.

My visits were amazing .... I had no idea about memories and what they can cause you good or bad thoughts .... I know I am in control of my decisions and who I am and .... my counselor brought out a lot of good things in me and how to see myself and life . She is so down to earth , keeps it real ! Love her . So easy to talk too and makes you feel safe ! Lots of appreciation and eye openers for me ! Glad I found Her!

She is the best! She makes you feel very at ease in her office. I was nervous to start seeing her over the summer and was pleasantly surprised to feel so comfortable. She has helped me make huge strides with my anxiety and ptsd. I would recommend her to anyone seeking similar treatment.

Katki is a compassionate, conscientious therapist. She is dedicated to her client's well being and provides excellent care and follow up.

Katki was amazing since the first day I met her. She is very friendly, relatable and easy to talk to. She was on time for all my appts. She tries to provide you with options for treatment, which allows you to have a say in what you think you would best benefit from. We did EMDR treatments which helped me overcome the tough situation I was facing. Katki allowed me to feel like myself again and took a load of stress away. I am very glad I met Katki and was able to connect with her which made me not dread going to my visits. She did not make me feel like she was just doing a job, she was there to help and provided me with the time I needed to heal. Thank you for all your help Katki!

Katki worked with my son regarding a traumatic event. She used EMDR to help process this event. During the EMDR session my son brought forth some experiences I wasn’t even aware of that were contributing to negative behaviors. She also explained how this one traumatic event was “the straw that broke the camels back” and created other issues. Literally after the first session I’ve seen a difference. She also took the time to listen to my other concerns and followed up after the session to see how we were doing!

Katki is a great therapist. She help me with my postpartum depression. I had Traumatic delivery. A year after I had my baby started to struggle and I did know why until katki help me understand why I was depressed and how to overcome my depression. I Highly recommend her.

Katki is a amazing therapist. She helped me over come my depression. And made me understand how to cope with some issues in my life. I can’t thank her enough for helping through this hard time. I honestly feel like a different person and I look at life a lot different. In a better way of course. I highly recommend Katki.

Katki is an amazing Therapist. When my little first began sessions, my little had a lot of challenges to work through due to trauma. Katki's patience with my little was a perfect fit. Katki has helped my little through many struggles and we really appreciate her support and guidance that she has given my little and myself. The support and guidance that my little has received has been immeasurable. As a parent, you want the best for your child, I felt I had made the best decision for my little. Katki, thank you for helping my little in finding the voice which was hidden. You ROCK!!
