Hi, my name is Katie Thomson, I'm an LCSW in both California and Pennsylvania. I intend to create a safe and warm space for clients to work on whatever they choose to bring into their sessions.
My approach
I have training in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Solution Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, to help adults better understand and navigate depression and anxiety.
My focus
I have a history of working with adults with a focus on depression, anxiety/panic attacks, work/life stress, and adoption as well as life transitions (divorce, entering the workforce, etc.)
My communication style
My communication style starts with building rapport with each client by being a listener, as well as empathic, nonjudgmental, and compassionate. Having a good therapeutic relationship is important to ensure that the client can open up and feel safe in processing whatever it is they are going through and bringing with them to each session.
