About Katherine

Katherine "Katie" Amit is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting concerns, and ADHD. She brings ten years of counseling experience to sessions and focuses on practical steps people can take right away. Katie aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through what matters most to them.

Katie uses a mix of approaches to fit each person's needs.

Background and approach

She draws on narrative ideas to help people reframe difficult stories about themselves. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and practice new ways of responding. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental.

Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-focused, with room to explore emotions and life history when that helps. Katie listens for patterns in relationships and daily life that keep problems stuck, and she supports clients in trying small, manageable changes. She also uses attachment-informed perspectives to look at how early bonds shape current relationships.

That can be useful for intimacy struggles, parenting stress, and getting clearer about emotional needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas may be added when clients want tools for coping with strong feelings and staying connected to valued goals. Katie tailors plans to each person’s schedule and situation.

She works with issues from postpartum depression to career transitions, trauma and abuse to obsessive-compulsive concerns. Her approach aims to make progress understandable and doable, one step at a time.

Online session options

How her approaches work online

Katie integrates Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that translate well to online formats. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from problem stories and rewrite how they see difficult events; this can clarify goals and reduce shame. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes, which often becomes a practical set of actions people can try between sessions.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help clients notice strong feelings and still take steps toward what matters. Katie treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She talks with each person about goals and preferences, and then tries methods that feel workable. If something doesn't fit, she adjusts the plan collaboratively so the work stays relevant and doable.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues for relationship and attachment work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing problem-solving and quick tracking of progress between longer sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into school, work, or caregiving routines while still working toward meaningful change.
