Katherine "Katie" Amit

Katherine "Katie" Amit is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and ADHD. She writes in a straightforward way and meets people where they are. Katie emphasizes practical steps and steady support when emotions or life events feel overwhelming.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental. She listens first, then helps craft small, realistic goals to change what isn’t working. Sessions focus on what matters to each person, whether that is managing panic attacks, coping with a breakup, or handling work and caregiver stress.

Katie draws from several approaches to fit each person’s needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and build new habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas help people clarify values and take action on them. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused elements guide work on closeness and trust in relationships.

Therapy sessions mix talk and practical exercises. Katie may suggest mindfulness practices, behavioral experiments, or communication skills to practice between meetings. The pace is collaborative so people leave with clear next steps and doable experiments to try at home.

She has ten years of experience and supports a broad range of concerns including trauma, intimacy issues, body image, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, postpartum mood changes, and life transitions. Katie accepts international clients and works with people in English. To begin, follow the site’s process to match and schedule a first session.

Approach and online options for treatment

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose values-based actions to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic. Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas look at how relationships and emotional bonds affect current struggles, which can be useful for intimacy and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about problems and goals, then recommend techniques that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made over time based on what works for the individual.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm which online or in-person options are offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, allowing shorter check-ins during a break or letting people avoid travel time. It also makes ongoing homework and skills practice easier to integrate into daily routines. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and emotionally focused exercises to work over distance when the session format supports it.
