With a background in the arts, she brings a nuanced understanding of the complexities that arise when perfection becomes a driving force for achievement and ambition. Through person-centered approach and evidence-based techniques, Katie helps clients navigate their burnout, restore integrity in their embodied experience, and explore meaning and purpose.

Katie specializes in evidence-based anxiety treatment, utilizing an integrative approach that combines person-centered and interpersonal process based approaches, with trauma-informed techniques, and nature-informed therapy.

Katie completed a Nature Informed Therapy (NIT) certification program at The Center for Nature Informed Therapy in Towson, MD. NIT is a therapeutic approach that integrates the healing elements of nature into established, evidence-based treatment modalities and is very similar to Eco-therapy in many ways. NIT looks for ways to integrate multiple healing properties of Nature into existing evidence-based modalities, and encourages healthy relationship between individuals and the natural world.
