About Katie

Katie Kanatzar is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Kentucky with three years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem concerns, and major life changes. Katie also focuses on attachment difficulties, caregiver stress, communication problems, and questions about life purpose.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical strategies to help people notice patterns and build coping skills. Sessions are collaborative; Katie talks with clients about goals and steps they can try between meetings. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

In the room she draws attention to concrete habits and responses. That can mean identifying unhelpful thoughts, trying out new communication approaches, or practicing ways to manage overwhelming feelings. She emphasizes small, repeatable actions people can use when stress spikes.

Katie pays attention to how relationships shape current struggles, including attachment and caregiver roles. She also helps people work through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and isolation so they can feel less stuck in daily life.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. People who come in unsure what to do next often leave with clearer short-term steps and ways to test different choices. To begin, clients select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

Working online with evidence-based techniques

Katie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide online work. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety, low mood, and social fears. This helps people spot patterns and try new responses in day-to-day situations.

She also uses trauma-informed methods to address post-traumatic stress and abuse-related difficulties. These approaches prioritize pacing and practical symptom management while helping people reduce distress from past events. For attachment and relationship-related concerns, she brings interventions that help clarify interaction patterns and improve communication over time.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Katie will discuss different techniques and help clients decide what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts methods as work progresses and as people try tools between sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people try sessions when juggling caregiving, work, or other commitments without promising any particular format.
