About Katherine

Katherine "Katie" Amit is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 10 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, ADHD, anger, and other life transitions. Katie works with adults who want clearer thinking and more control over strong emotions.

Katie uses practical, evidence-informed approaches in sessions. She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-focused ideas. That means she helps people spot unhelpful thinking, notice patterns in relationships, and practice small behavior changes that make daily life easier.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Clients can expect to talk through recent problems, try short exercises in session, and get simple behavioral steps to practice between meetings. Katie emphasizes skills people can use right away at work, home, and in relationships.

She also addresses areas such as parenting stress, body image concerns, obsessions and compulsions, postpartum mood changes, and challenges with intimacy. Katie pays attention to how family history and attachment patterns shape reactions to anger and conflict.

Katie accepts international clients and offers services in English. Her approach is collaborative - she helps people set realistic goals and adjusts the plan as needs change. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and committing to values-based actions. It helps people who are stuck in avoidance or who want to act differently even when emotions feel strong. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thinking and behavior patterns that keep problems going, using experiments and practice to reduce symptoms like anxiety, panic, or anger. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early and current relationships shape reactions, helping people recognize patterns that affect intimacy, conflict, and caregiving stress.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Katie works with clients to choose which tools fit their goals and preferences. Together they try methods, review what works, and adjust the plan across sessions so the work stays practical and focused on daily life.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions useful because they fit into workdays, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Expect straightforward, skills-based conversations that aim to be useful between meetings and to slot into everyday routines.
