It can be overwhelming to feel that you are not heard in your life and that you have no one to to truly listen to you.

Now Accepting New Clients! At ClearPath Health, we view therapy as a collaborative process in which clients are encouraged to explore thoughts, feeling, and behaviors in a supportive, non-judgmental, and compassionate setting. Clients who have completed treatment leave with new coping skills, a renewed sense of confidence and fresh perspectives on their lives. In my years of service, I've worked with clients dealing with low self-esteem, anxiety, addiction, depression, LGBTQ+ issues, and stress-related issues, to name a few.

People seeking therapy are looking to gain emotional support, coping skills, self-discovery, and help with significant traumas or losses. It is my role to facilitate your journey of healing and growth and help you along the way while providing a safe space for all people of all cultures. My goal is to help you become one step closer to where you want to be with each therapy session. I have years of experience with adolescents, adults, and older adults. Through my integrated approach of evidence based modalities, I aim to help clients build resilience, enhance self-awareness, and create meaningful changes in their lives.

The human experience is not void of struggle. And while this is true for all of us at some point, it’s no longer necessary to move through challenging seasons alone. Reaching out for support is a great first step toward a healthier and happier future.

I worked in the field since 2004. I enjoy building relationships with each family member, working with behavior problems in-home or at school, working with issues related to being a new mother or father, and traumatic experiences. To restore strained relationships can be both very powerful and empowering. To reprocess trauma in the brain can start the healing process in order to move forward with life. The people that I have provided therapy to ranged in age from 2 years old up through mature adults.

Let me introduce myself - my name is Dr. Katie and treating anxiety efficiently and effectively is my forte. I specialize in the unique training required to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder, trichotillomania, generalized anxiety disorder, specific phobia, panic disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, and other anxiety inducing difficulties. It also rare that an individual has a pure anxiety diagnosis, therefore I am as equally effective in treating individuals who also struggle with depression, disordered eating, behavioral difficulties, etc. I have trained at a variety of clinic settings including Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital and Rogers Behavioral Health.

I work with people to help them reach their full potential. I can do this with telehealth or in person. My job is to help remove those barriers keeping you from becoming who you really are. That might simply be a change in your life you are having trouble making. Or that may be a mental health or physical issue you have. Because I'm both a psychotherapist AND Chiropractic Physician, I can address the physical components of things that are keeping you from being who you want to be too. Often the physical problems have psychological components and the psychological problems have physical components.

Like many of the families we work with, you may be feeling stuck. Perhaps you've read books, skimmed websites, and talked to friends and family in an effort to address your child's emotional or behavioral issues...yet he/she still seems to be struggling. Turning to someone else for help can feel like a big step. After all, as your child's parent, who knows him/her better than you? We agree. Thrive Child Psychology works in partnership with youth and families to get to the root of challenges, establish goals, and use research-based tools to achieve them

You're always there for those in your life who depend on you; children, partner, friends, co-workers, but you can't find the time to take care of yourself. Sometimes the stressors of life can feel like too much to manage alone. Maybe your past has been too hard to forget. The expectations placed on you are overwhelming or unmanageable.

Whatever their specific struggles, my goal is to provide them with the tools, insights, and empowerment they need to navigate their challenges and find healing. Ultimately, my clients seek therapy because they have a genuine desire for personal growth and transformation. They understand that therapy can serve as a catalyst for positive change.
