About Katie
Katie Brockman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 12 years of clinical experience offering support for people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. She brings a practical, empathetic style to work on issues such as self-esteem, compassion fatigue, addictions, parenting challenges, and family changes.
Background and approach
Katie emphasizes collaboration and helps clients identify concrete coping strategies while exploring the emotional patterns that contribute to ongoing difficulties. Her work often centers on strengthening relationships, addressing guilt and shame, and guiding caregivers through stress related to their roles.
Katie draws on client-centered principles to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment and uses evidence-informed tools to build insight and resilience. Clients can expect a focus on developing skills to manage daily stressors, process loss, and make values-aligned changes that support longer-term well-being.
Based in Tennessee, Katie combines practical interventions with mindfulness and motivational techniques to support emotional regulation and purposeful action. Her approach balances empathy with skill-building so clients leave sessions with both understanding and workable steps toward their goals.
Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Work
Katie integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy into online sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve coping, which can be useful for stress, worry, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of difficult emotions, offering tools for emotional regulation and reducing reactivity.Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist works together with clients to determine which methods best fit their goals, values, and preferences, and adapts techniques as progress unfolds so treatment remains relevant and practical.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible access to care. These options make it easier to schedule around work and family life, continue momentum between sessions, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working on skills, problem-solving, and emotional processing.
