About Katie
Katie Brockman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, find better ways to cope with grief, and rebuild self-esteem. Katie aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about what matters most and find practical steps forward.
She draws on client-centered methods that put the person's goals first. Sessions often focus on listening closely, reflecting what is said, and helping people clarify what they want to change. Katie also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns.
Katie has worked with people facing complicated family shifts and blended household adjustments. She helps individuals set boundaries, reduce compassion fatigue, and address patterns such as codependency that affect daily life. Her work includes supporting parents who are feeling overwhelmed and caregivers managing long-term stress.
In sessions she prioritizes practical tools. That can mean short skill-building exercises, mindfulness practices to reduce anxiety, or step-by-step plans to test new behaviors. Katie balances listening with concrete strategies so clients leave with something they can use between appointments.
People who choose Katie tend to want a collaborative approach. She helps clients set clear goals, track small wins, and revise plans when needed. The focus is on steady progress and building confidence to handle life changes more effectively.

Approaches that guide online work and change
Katie combines Motivational Interviewing and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people make shifts that matter. Motivational Interviewing focuses on exploring personal reasons for change and building motivation in a gentle, nonjudgmental way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses practical exercises to test new approaches and reduce anxiety.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Katie will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together so it fits day-to-day life.
Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats were not specified in the biography. Many people find that online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for brief check-ins between heavier sessions. Online work can also let someone practice skills in real-life settings and bring real examples into the session for immediate feedback. Licensed professionals, including this therapist, use these approaches to help clients build coping skills and move toward clearer goals. -
