About Mary

Mary Catherine "Katie" Miller is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with two decades of experience providing counseling, training, teaching, and coaching in New York. She practices from an empathic, nonjudgmental stance that centers the client's perspective and strengths while helping to clarify thoughts and emotions.

Background and approach

Katie draws on evidence-informed strategies to address challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue. Throughout a varied career working with individuals and families, Katie has supported people facing life transitions, long-term mental health conditions, and complex grief or trauma histories.

She blends client-centered listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches, and uses motivational interviewing and narrative techniques to help clients reframe patterns and move toward their goals. Clients benefit from her calm, steady presence and a collaborative, goal-focused process that honors each person’s values and pace.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care



Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes active, empathic listening and building a respectful therapeutic relationship; it helps clients explore feelings and values while feeling heard and supported. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and learning concrete skills to manage symptoms like anxiety, depression, and attention-related challenges. Mindfulness Therapy cultivates present-moment awareness and self-compassion through practices that can reduce stress and improve emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and then blends methods so the plan fits the individual rather than forcing a single technique. This collaborative stance helps tailor interventions for concerns such as ADHD, grief, relationship issues, or life transitions.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions occur, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy schedules or when face-to-face meetings are difficult, while allowing licensed professionals to use the same therapeutic skills and tools in ways that fit the client's life.
