About Katie
Katie focuses on clear, everyday conversation about what feels hard. She listens for patterns in relationships and behavior, then works with clients to try different ways of responding. Sessions involve straightforward skills, mindfulness practices, and chances to talk about what matters most. She uses methods from cognitive behavioral work and acceptance-based approaches to help people notice thoughts and make choices that match their values.
Her background includes helping people with caregiving stress, chronic health challenges, adoption and foster care concerns, and issues related to aging and geriatric concerns. Katie also addresses attachment questions, body image, and communication struggles. This variety has shaped her flexible, practical style.
Katie aims to build a steady, collaborative working relationship. She encourages small, testable changes and checks in about what works. Clients find that pacing and clear goals help move toward better day-to-day coping.
When starting, she guides each person through a simple plan so sessions feel focused and useful. People interested in beginning therapy can expect warm, direct conversation and tools they can use between meetings.

How Katie’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then focus on actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life changes when someone wants clearer direction about what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to shift those patterns. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, and problem-solving in daily life. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and emotion patterns that come from early connections, which can be useful for improving trust and communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will discuss these methods with each person and decide together what fits best. That decision is based on the client's goals, the issues they bring, and what feels most helpful in early sessions.
For practical matters, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises and homework in the moments they happen in daily life, which can make practice more relevant and effective.
