About Katie
Katie learned from many work settings, including international placements in Italy, Japan, and South Korea. She uses a strengths-based, solution-focused way of working and adapts her approach to what each person needs. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice patterns of thinking and try different responses.
Sessions are aimed at clear goals such as improving sleep, coping with grief, reducing anger, addressing addictions, exploring intimacy issues, or rebuilding self-esteem. Katie also supports people facing compassion fatigue and life changes. She describes therapy as a partnership where small changes add up over time.
In sessions she focuses on practical tools and real-life steps instead of long theory. People can expect conversations about their current struggles, experiments to try between sessions, and check-ins on what’s working. Her goal is to help clients feel more able to handle life’s challenges.
Katie asks prospective clients to use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability. She does not work with international clients and conducts sessions in English.

How evidence-based approaches fit into online therapy
Katie commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. CBT is practical and problem-focused, often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep, and stress-related issues.She also works from a strengths-based, solution-focused perspective that highlights a person’s resources and small, achievable changes. This approach helps when someone wants clear goals and short-term strategies for coping and decision-making.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts methods if something isn’t helping.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Many people appreciate online therapy because it can fit more easily into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter or more focused check-ins, and make it simpler to balance work and family demands. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to deliver the same practical skills and planning they use in person, while working with clients to make those tools usable in everyday life.
