About Katie

She listens closely, helps clients name their concerns, and works with them to set clear, doable goals. Sessions tend to focus on small steps that build confidence and reduce overwhelm.
How Katie works
Many people come to her when relationships, caregiving, or aging bring new challenges. She also supports those coping with codependency, communication struggles, infidelity, and divorce or separation. Katie helps clients sort out family of origin issues and the emotional fallout that follows.
Her work emphasizes improving communication and managing control and commitment concerns. People also seek her out for help with forgiveness, loneliness, jealousy, and finding purpose during midlife transitions. Katie balances practical problem solving with attention to emotions.
In sessions she helps clients develop coping strategies and build lasting habits. She encourages people to try approaches that fit their daily life and schedules. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Many of Katie's methods come from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach concentrates on improving communication patterns and relationship skills so daily interactions feel less stressful and more connected.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Katie works with each person to learn their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. Together they try methods that match the client's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share thoughts between sessions or check in on progress without scheduling a video call. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain steady momentum toward goals.
