About Katie

Katie Hunter is a Florida LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with 13 years of clinical experience. She supports people dealing with anxiety, stress, grief, anger, and the effects of chronic or terminal illness. Her work also addresses caregiver strain, addiction-related relationship challenges, and life changes that leave people feeling worn down.

She focuses on practical, straightforward work in sessions. Katie listens to what is happening now and helps people name the feelings that are getting in the way. She uses clear tools to reduce reactivity, manage overwhelming emotions, and rebuild a sense of control over daily life.

Katie draws on Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the client's perspective and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy when emotion regulation and traumatic memories are part of the picture. Solution-Focused techniques help set short-term goals and track small wins.

People who come to Katie often want to stop snapping at loved ones, reduce workplace frustration, or ease the build-up of resentment. She works with those facing caregiver stress, cancer or other chronic illness, and the fallout from a partner's addiction. Sessions aim to make everyday life more manageable rather than promising quick fixes.

Her approach is direct and human. Katie helps clients practice new responses, test different ways of thinking, and try specific skills between sessions. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment through the site's matching process.

How sessions work

How Katie applies therapeutic approaches in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's own perspective and current concerns. The therapist listens closely, reflects back what she hears, and helps clients describe their feelings and priorities. This approach helps people who are stuck or unsure what they want from therapy.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. Katie uses CBT to spot thinking patterns that increase anger or anxiety and to test small behavior changes that reduce reactivity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) contributes specific emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that are useful when strong feelings feel overwhelming.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Katie will review your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. She treats the process as collaborative and adjusts strategies based on what helps you make steady, practical changes.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid long travel, and try brief check-ins when full sessions are difficult. Different formats can also allow quieter conversations, shorter skill practice sessions, or more structured weekly work depending on what you need.
