About Katie
Katie Hunter is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who uses a client-focused approach to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. She draws on practical techniques to address trauma, compassion fatigue, addiction-related strain, relationship concerns, and struggles with self-esteem. Katie aims to make therapy feel straightforward and doable for people under pressure.
Katie has 13 years of clinical experience working with adults who are coping with chronic or terminal illness and their caregiving challenges.
How Katie works
She also supports people managing the emotional fallout of a partner's alcohol use and the life shifts that follow job or relationship changes. Her work often involves sorting through anger, guilt, shame, and loss of identity. In sessions she blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral strategies and elements of dialectical behavior therapy to build practical skills.
She also uses solution-focused and trauma-focused methods when a short-term plan or trauma processing is needed. The mix depends on what each person wants to accomplish. Katie focuses on clear goals and small, manageable steps.
She helps people track patterns of thought and behavior, practice emotion regulation, and try new ways of coping. Katie aims for therapy that feels relevant to day-to-day life rather than abstract theory. Her background working with serious illness, caregiver stress, and addiction-related relationship harm shapes her approach.
Katie emphasizes hope and resilience, reminding people that recovery and renewed purpose are possible even after painful experiences.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. It helps people feel heard and guides the therapist and client to set goals together. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches specific techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.Katie will work collaboratively to find which approach or combination fits best. She discusses goals and preferences at the start and adjusts methods as progress is made. This gives people a clear plan while still honoring their priorities and pace.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let a therapist see nonverbal cues for fuller conversations. Phone sessions are useful if a quieter or lower-bandwidth option is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, building skills between sessions, or more frequent contact when a full session isn't possible.
These formats can make it easier to keep regular appointments, manage caregiver or work commitments, and practice new skills in day-to-day life. Katie uses these online options to help people work steadily toward manageable goals.
