About Katie
Katie draws on eight years of community-based practice in New York. She focuses on creating a welcoming space where people can talk honestly about what is hard. Sessions are meant to be a place for practical problem solving and emotional processing, not judgment.
Her work combines several common therapeutic methods. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to spot unhelpful thinking. She includes acceptance and commitment ideas to help people act on their values. Emotion-focused and attachment-informed techniques are used when relationships and connection are central concerns.
In a session she listens, reflects, and offers exercises you can try between meetings. That may include small behavior experiments, mindfulness practices, or communication skills to test in real life. The goal is steady, workable change rather than quick fixes.
Katie encourages people who feel stuck to take a practical step toward change. She helps set manageable goals and checks progress along the way. Her approach is collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and when life changes feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy involves identifying thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused and attachment-informed work focuses on how feelings and relationship patterns affect well-being and can help when connection or communication is a main concern.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Katie works together with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning means techniques can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up check-ins that keep progress on track. They also let people try out skills in the settings where problems occur and bring those experiences back to sessions for troubleshooting and refinement.
