More about Katherine

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker in Florida with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & anger management.

I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I have worked within the juvenile justice system for most of my professional career and find this helps me interact well with people from all different walks of life. I want to help you find the strengths within yourself and build upon them to find success in whatever your goal is in counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and strength. Let's work together to keep this momentum moving forward toward a positive future.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Katherine is so calming, so clever, and gives real world actionable advice. I'm glad that Better Help matched me with her, she's a real gem! It's nice to see people doing what they are truly meant to do.

Reviewed March 2023

Kate is simply the best. I’ve been to a variety of therapists over the years and none of them have given me as many tools that Kate has. I appreciate that Kate is incredibly responsive and always follows up to my concerns, even going above and beyond by providing affirmations and supportive quotes each week. Kate listens intently and understands my personality, which makes therapy so much more enjoyable than it ever has been. It’s been a lot of hard work, but I’m so glad I have Kate to get through it!
