About Katie
Katie Carr is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also addresses concerns such as guilt and shame alongside issues like substance use, eating concerns, attachment problems, and isolation.
Katie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and keeps sessions direct and practical. She focuses on helping people talk through distressing memories, understand unhelpful patterns, and build everyday coping skills. Sessions emphasize clear goals and gradual steps rather than quick fixes.
She has experience supporting people who identify as LGBTQ+ and those dealing with discrimination or multicultural concerns. Her background includes work with first responders and people who are neurodivergent. Katie also has experience with domestic violence and sexual assault aftermath, and with clients living with serious mental illness.
In conversation she prioritizes collaboration. She helps people name what they feel, trace how those feelings affect choices, and try different ways of responding. The practical work can include reducing panic, improving routines, and addressing shame that stems from identity or past actions.
Sessions are presented in straightforward language and focus on skills people can use between meetings. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Katie works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical steps. One common approach is trauma-informed work that helps people process upsetting memories and reduce the intensity of those memories through structured conversation and coping exercises. This can be useful for people dealing with past abuse, assault, or repeated stressful events.Another common strand is skills-focused therapy that teaches concrete tools for managing anxiety, panic, and low mood. That can include breathing and grounding practices, activity planning, and breaking tasks into manageable steps to reduce overwhelm and shame-driven avoidance.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Katie will help clients and therapists together figure out which techniques fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. That process is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift.
The site notes session arrangements during booking, so confirm the current session options before you schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or family responsibilities, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises so people can practice skills between meetings and apply them to everyday situations.
