About Katie

Katie Hunter is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and the effects of chronic or terminal illness. She also helps people who are caregivers or who are facing relationship change related to addiction or life transition.

Katie works in a straightforward, person-centered way. She listens to what matters most and uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to address symptoms and daily challenges. Sessions often focus on practical skills for managing anxiety, grief, anger, and exhaustion from caregiving or illness-related roles.

Clients bring questions about how to keep going when they feel overwhelmed, how to cope with loss of identity, or how to respond to a partner's addiction. Katie draws on trauma-focused and solution-focused methods when those fit a person’s needs. She helps people notice unhelpful patterns and try clearer, smaller steps that can change day-to-day life.

Her work includes helping people reclaim a sense of self after major life changes, process complicated grief, and manage compassion fatigue. She also supports people coping with chronic pain, cancer, or end-of-life concerns and the stress those bring to caregiving roles.

Katie offers practical, down-to-earth sessions that aim to reduce overwhelm and build coping tools. She practices in Florida and provides services in English.

How sessions work

How Katie's approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own goals and experience. The therapist pays attention to what matters to the client and helps them make choices about what to work on next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns.

These methods are used collaboratively. The therapist will discuss options and help the client decide which approach fits best for their situation and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs and goals shift, and the therapist supports that exploration.

Confirm session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day and to check in more regularly. It can also allow for shorter focused meetings when time is limited, or reduce the need to travel for an appointment. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT or DBT exercises to brief sessions or longer conversations depending on what a client needs.
