Licensed Clinical Social Worker & Child Therapist
Hi, I’m Katie!
Parenting a child who struggles with anxiety and mental health issues can be incredibly challenging and heart-wrenching. Watching your child battle fears and worries that seem overwhelming, or struggle with physical symptoms like stomachaches and headaches caused by anxiety, can make you feel helpless. You might notice your child avoiding certain situations or activities, having trouble sleeping, or finding it difficult to focus in school.

Explore Skills Academy →As a trauma-informed child therapist specializing in anxiety, I understand the unique difficulties you and your child are facing. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and supportive environment where your child can express their feelings and fears without judgement. Using evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), play therapy, and mindfulness strategies, I tailor my approach to meet your child’s specific needs. These methods help children understand their emotions, manage their anxiety, develop coping skills, and build resilience.
