About Katie
Katie Hunter is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (FL LMHC) with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, anger, and the challenges that come with chronic or terminal illness. She also supports caregivers and those affected by a loved one’s substance use.
Katie focuses on practical, straightforward work. She listens to what is causing strain and helps people name the patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions often include concrete skills for regulating strong feelings and steps to reduce daily overwhelm.
Her approach draws on client-centered methods and evidence-informed techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused work. That means conversations center on each person’s goals while also testing small changes that can reduce distress. She uses tools for managing intense emotions and for coping with loss and life transitions.
Katie works with people who are worn down by caregiving, chronic illness, or addiction in a close relationship. She helps people address resentment, guilt, and a lost sense of self. Practical problem-solving around work, career choices, and daily routines is also part of her work.
People who come to Katie can expect direct, goal-focused sessions that combine talk with skill practice. She encourages realistic steps people can use between sessions. The aim is clearer thinking, fewer sudden flare-ups of anger, and more control over daily demands.
How Katie’s therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy begins with the person’s concerns and preferences. It focuses on listening, reflecting, and adapting the pace to what feels manageable. This approach helps when anger comes from feeling unheard or overwhelmed at home or work.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In short sessions clients learn to spot unhelpful thinking, test it, and try alternative responses. CBT is useful for reducing frequent irritability, workplace frustration, and rumination that fuels anger.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and managing interpersonal conflict. These skills are often used when someone wants steadier reactions and tools to calm down in the moment.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Katie will collaborate with clients to choose approaches that fit their goals, whether the priority is reducing outbursts, repairing strained relationships, or coping with caregiving stress. She adjusts tools based on what clients report is helping.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not specify formats. Ask about available session types and how they fit into your schedule.
