Katie (Catherine) Leavitt is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Idaho who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem struggles. She also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and life transitions. Katie invites people who feel stuck to take small, brave steps toward change in a supportive setting.
She centers sessions on building awareness and safer ways of relating to others and to oneself. Katie uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice patterns, try different behaviors, and make choices that match their values. She views therapy as a partnership and aims to honor each person's goals and priorities.
Before counseling, Katie spent two decades as an entrepreneur and business consultant. That background informs a pragmatic approach to problem solving and coaching. Katie brings four years of clinical experience as an LPC to her work with complex personal and relational situations.
Her toolkit includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered techniques. Those methods are used to address things like communication problems, attachment concerns, control and dependency struggles, and midlife or postpartum transitions.
Katie asks people to approach therapy with willingness and effort, and she helps pace change so it feels manageable. Her aim is to help clients meet a more resilient and engaged version of themselves and to open space for healthier relationships and clearer life purpose.
How Katie’s Approaches Shape Online Work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and struggles with meaning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now and helps people practice different ways of connecting with others and with themselves.
Finding the right fit is part of the work. Katie treats therapy as a collaborative process and will discuss which approaches suit a person’s goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what actually helps.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a work break. It also lets people maintain continuity of care across moves within the same state, and it can make scheduling more flexible. Licensed professionals, including Katie, adapt pacing and tools so therapy is practical and useful in day-to-day life.
