About Katie
Katie Wood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, and relationship or family issues. She also supports people facing life transitions, parenting challenges, ADHD symptoms, body image worries, and work or career stress. Her tone is warm and straightforward, aiming to make difficult topics easier to talk about.
She draws on six years of experience in community behavioral health and clinical practice.
Background and approach
Her background includes work as a behavioral health specialist while completing a Master of Social Work degree. That combination gave her experience with individual and group settings, and with adults across many stages of life. Sessions focus on building a strong working relationship first.
She helps people spot strengths, set small goals, and practice practical skills between sessions. Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person's needs, with clear and simple tools offered when useful. Katie uses a mix of approaches such as client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior tools, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, narrative work, and psychoeducation.
She adapts these to problems like panic attacks, compulsive thoughts, compulsions, or patterns that keep someone stuck. She pays attention to how physical health, support systems, work or school, and personal beliefs affect wellbeing. Katie aims to help people improve daily functioning and feel more in control of their routines and relationships.

Online support
How Katie blends approaches for online support
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's perspective. It helps people feel heard and respected while they decide what changes matter most. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive thoughts.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and styles. Video works well for a full session with face-to-face interaction, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing brief contact between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity of care across locations.
