About

My name is Katie Worden and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working with clients via telehealth. I work with young adults and women who are experiencing a range of issues including anxiety, depression, life transitions and difficulty processing past events. My approach I am particularly passionate about how our past experiences influence our present. Our bodies hold onto past experiences in ways we may not even be aware of. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a therapeutic approach that can help with anxiety, PTSD, and a range of other issues. By using EMDR and related approaches, we can aim to decrease anxiety and other unwanted feelings or emotions. My focus I typically work with young adults and woman who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Life transitions include, but are not limited to, starting or ending school, starting or ending romantic relationships or friendships, and becoming a mom for the first time. I also work with clients who may be feeling weighed down by a particularly difficult, or maybe even traumatizing, event. I am a trauma informed therapist and use evidence based practices that can help decrease your emotional response to that event. My communication style My main focus in our first few sessions is for you to feel safe and to establish a trusting relationship. At the start, therapy can feel intimidating, but I do my best to create a relaxed and non-threatening environment for you to get started on you journey of growth.
