ABOUT DR. KATIE

     I am a licensed psychologist in Florida, and licensed to practice via PSYPACT in AL, AZ, AR, CO, CNMI, CT, DE, DC, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MI, MN, MO, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, RI, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WV, WI, and WY.

    I received my Doctorate of Psychology in Counseling Psychology from Northwest University (APA-accredited program), during which I received considerable training in outpatient therapy, behavioral medicine at healthcare clinics, and neuropsychology. I then completed my dream postdoc, a two-year residency with the National Alliance for Eating Disorders specializing in the treatment of eating disorders. Since then, I stay up to date on the current research, attend regular trainings, and collaborate regularly with colleagues so that I am providing you the best care possible. I tailor your therapy to your specific needs, goals, and personality. Modalities utilized include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Processing Therapy.

​

     On a more personal note, therapy is my passion. I've known since I was 12 years old that this is what I've wanted to do. I am fiercely passionate about helping you find freedom from any sort of shame, guilt, low-self esteem, or anxiety that binds you. I know what it's like to feel totally and completely stuck. Let's work together to take the next step forward. 

​

     Finding the right therapist can feel daunting, and my job is to make it as comfortable as possible! I offer a complimentary phone consultation so that you can see if we might be a good fit. This also allows me the opportunity to assess if my experience best fits your needs.
