About Katie

Katie Lamb is a New York licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with eight years of practice supporting people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, self-esteem concerns, major life transitions, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to help clients clarify what matters to them, develop practical skills, and reduce patterns that get in the way of daily functioning and well-being. Her style centers on collaboration and respectful listening, creating a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions, behaviors, and interpersonal patterns.

Katie blends approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques to address thinking and behavior, emotion-focused work to strengthen relational and attachment themes, and mindfulness-informed strategies to increase flexibility and present-moment coping. She also attends to complexities like chronic illness, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care histories, and communication or commitment difficulties.

Based in New York, Katie emphasizes practical tools alongside compassionate support so clients can move toward healthier routines and more satisfying relationships. She invites prospective clients to take the step to connect and begin shaping goals that feel meaningful and achievable.

Online Therapeutic Approaches and What They Offer

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present; it can be useful for clients managing anxiety, stress, and life transitions by increasing psychological flexibility. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to reduce worry, reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, and build new habits for daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) attends to emotional experiences and relational patterns, which can help people understand attachment-related dynamics and improve connection with important others.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Katie works collaboratively to identify which methods best match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She combines techniques as appropriate and revisits treatment plans together to ensure the work stays aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make regular appointments easier to fit into busy schedules and reach people who live elsewhere in New York. These options support consistent practice of skills between sessions and make it simpler to maintain momentum while working on stress, anxiety, relationships, or coping with life changes.
