About Katie
Katie favors a strengths-based, solution-focused style in sessions. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps clients spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try new responses to difficult situations. She mixes methods to fit each person rather than relying on a single approach.
Her work history includes practice in North Carolina and earlier roles overseas in Italy, Japan, and South Korea. Those experiences shaped her appreciation for diverse perspectives and practical problem solving. She describes therapy as a partnership where clients set goals and try achievable steps between appointments.
Sessions aim to be goal-oriented and centered on everyday changes like parenting strain, relationship tensions, sleep problems, career stress, and coping after loss. Katie also supports people managing addiction challenges, trauma and abuse, intimacy concerns, and compassion fatigue.
If you are thinking about change but feel unsure where to begin, Katie invites a first conversation to map priorities and plan straightforward next steps. Her approach focuses on clarity, small experiments, and building skills you can use outside sessions.
How Katie Uses Evidence-Based Tools Online
Many clients benefit from practical techniques they can use right away. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting when stress, anxiety, or mood problems show up. It focuses on concrete steps and short experiments to change patterns that keep people stuck.In addition, Katie describes her overall style as strengths-based and solution-focused. That means she helps people notice what already works for them and build on those skills to reach manageable goals. This approach is useful for coping with life changes, parenting strain, career stress, and grief because it concentrates on clear next steps rather than lengthy exploration.
Finding the right method is part of the work together. Katie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then try approaches that match those needs. She views therapy as a collaborative process where adjustments are made when something is not working.
