About Katie
Katie Parent is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York and Connecticut with ten years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Katie also works with issues such as body image, attachment and abandonment, eating and food-related concerns, and post-traumatic stress.
She frames her work around practical change. Sessions often include talk aimed at understanding what keeps a problem going and small, doable steps to interrupt it. Katie pays attention to how emotions show up in behavior, money matters, and daily routines so therapy connects to everyday life.
Her background includes a decade of clinical practice with adults across a range of life situations. She notes experience addressing sexual assault and abuse, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and feelings of guilt and shame. That clinical experience informs how she helps people set goals and pace work on painful memories.
In sessions she attends to how relationships and attachment shape current struggles. She helps people identify patterns that affect self-worth, impulse control, and decision making. Conversations may include skills to manage anxiety, establish boundaries, and repair ruptures in important relationships.
Katie works in Connecticut and offers services in English. The cost varies with location and sessions are provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
BHow sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and what they do
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on what helps most in everyday life. One common approach addresses trauma by working with memories and reactions so distressing symptoms become less disruptive. This can help with post-traumatic stress, panic, and recovery after sexual assault and abuse.Another approach targets anxiety and compulsive patterns by teaching skills to notice triggers and practice different responses. Those skills are useful for panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, and repetitive worry that affects daily functioning.
Choosing the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick or adapt techniques based on needs, goals, and preferences. That means checking in and adjusting pace, practice, and focus as progress is reviewed together.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Many people find remote sessions easier to schedule around work, childcare, and travel. Remote work can reduce time spent commuting, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week.
