Katie cultivates healing through exploration of the past, targeted trauma processing, psychosocial skill building, and an implementation of practical strategies. Core to her approach is working with people to identify their inner critics and to recognize the limiting beliefs that shape the lens through which they see themselves and the world around them. Katie provides a safe space for her clients to gain insight, build deeper and more authentic connections, and develop skills for reducing distress so they can live a more fulfilling and satisfying life.

Katie is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), two evidence-based trauma modalities that use bilateral stimulation to reduce the negative influence traumatic experiences have on our current thoughts, feelings, and behavior.

In Katie’s previous professional life, she was a documentary film and television producer. She has worked on commercials, music videos, indie films, and just about every type of unscripted series you can imagine–including Intervention (A&E), Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition (ABC), and Iron Chef America (Food Network) – to name a few. She was also the Supervising Producer of the award-winning feature documentary, Little Man (Showtime), about a family who struggles to hold their family together when their son, Nicholas, is born weighing less than one pound.

Katie graduated with a Communications degree from the University of Connecticut and a Master’s degree in Social Work from Louisiana State University.
