More about Katie
- 19 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 19 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families. My role as a therapist involves listening without judgment or assumptions and sometimes providing alternative ways of seeing a situation in order to help you meet your goals. Reaching out for help takes courage and I feel privileged to support people on their brave journeys. I have assisted individuals in navigating a range of issues including, depression, stress, anxiety, family separation and loss, immigration, and life transitions. Social justice and anti-racism have always been critical elements of my practice. I provide ongoing education on the process of counseling and how different interventions may serve your individual needs. Clients have described me as compassionate, perceptive, empathic and supportive. I have primarily worked in NYC and also have experience working with families in Costa Rica and eSwatini. I look forward to meeting you and working together!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
