    About Katie

    Katie (Catherine) Leavitt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Idaho who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting struggles. She also helps with grief, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, life changes, and ADHD. Katie offers a steady, person-focused approach and invites clients to explore change at their own pace.

    She favors practical, conversational work that centers the client's goals. Sessions aim to build awareness of patterns in relationships and behavior. Katie uses clear, goal-oriented tools and helps clients notice what matters most to them before making changes. She emphasizes collaboration and small, achievable steps.

    Katie draws from several therapeutic approaches to tailor care for each person. Techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) may be used to address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at recurring relationship patterns.

    Her background includes four years of counseling experience and two decades of entrepreneurship and business consulting. That combination informs a practical stance toward problem solving and life transitions. Clients can expect direct conversation, attention to real-world concerns, and help translating insight into action.

    Katie describes therapy as a shared process. She aims to honor each client’s story and readiness for change while helping them find clearer ways to move forward.

  1. How therapeutic approaches guide online work

    Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and find personal motivation. It uses open questions and reflective listening to support gradual steps toward goals. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches people to notice thoughts and feelings without battling them and to focus on values-based action that matters. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people try different ways of relating to others.

    Katie treats the choice of approach as a team decision. She will listen to what matters to the client, discuss which methods might help, and try strategies together to see what fits. The work is collaborative and adjusted over time based on the client's needs and preferences.

    Confirm available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for flexible check-ins between other responsibilities. It can also make sessions simpler when someone prefers not to use video or needs a shorter meeting to focus on a specific issue. Licensed professionals can tailor pacing and tools so online work stays practical and goal oriented.
