About Katie
Katie Leavitt is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Idaho who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and parenting challenges. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, life changes, ADHD, and issues around self-esteem and purpose.
Katie frames therapy as a collaborative effort where people learn practical ways to feel steadier and reconnect with what matters to them. Katie uses straightforward, person-centered work that focuses on everyday coping and clearer communication.
Background and approach
She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to shift unhelpful thinking and on emotion-focused approaches to help people name and move through strong feelings. Attachment-informed work helps explore patterns that show up in relationships and in how people handle conflict or control issues. Sessions are aimed at building skills people can use between meetings.
That might include exercises to notice automatic thoughts, experiments in having honest conversations, or practices to tolerate and act despite uncomfortable emotions. Katie also integrates coaching-style tools when people want concrete steps toward specific goals at home or work. She brings four years of counseling experience and a background in entrepreneurship and crisis management.
That mix shapes a practical, solution-minded style that still values emotional safety and connection. Katie encourages clients to set small, doable goals and to track progress at their own pace. Katie meets people where they are and works side by side to reduce overwhelm and increase clarity.
Her approach is gentle but direct, aiming to help clients reclaim more calm, clearer relationships, and a stronger sense of direction.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify personal values and commit to small actions that align with those values even when emotions are difficult. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and making forward movement during life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people change interaction habits that create distance or conflict in relationships.Katie will work with clients to find the right mix of approaches. She treats that as a team decision and adjusts methods based on your goals, preferences, and what you notice is most helpful. The process is collaborative and paced to the client's needs.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is helpful for deeper conversations and emotion-focused work, while phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work well for brief check-ins, coaching-style guidance, or when a shorter touchpoint fits into a busy day. These options make it easier to maintain steady work on goals without extra travel or scheduling strain.
