About Katherine

Katherine "Katie" Royer is an LPCC licensed in New Mexico with 16 years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and related concerns such as sleep problems, parenting strain, and LGBT issues. Katie also works with people facing trauma and abuse, bipolar mood challenges, anger, jealousy, and obsessive-compulsive patterns.

Her approach is practical and straightforward. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and test different responses. Katie also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and on client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on what matters to the person in front of her.

Sessions are a place to talk through what is happening now and to try small changes between meetings. Katie gives concrete tools to reduce intense feelings and to improve daily routines like sleep and stress management. She helps people plan simple steps they can practice between sessions and then reviews what worked and what did not.

Over her 16 years, Katie has worked with a range of issues from acute stress to longer-term mood concerns. She explains options plainly and checks in about how an approach is working. People meet with her to learn skills, test new habits, and adjust plans when life changes create new challenges.

Sessions are conducted in English and she does not work with international clients. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial appointment through the platform's online options.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Katie combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment-based ideas, and client-centered methods in ways that fit online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. Attachment-based work looks at how relationship patterns shape feelings and reactions, which can be useful for jealousy, parenting strain, and interpersonal stress. Client-centered methods keep the agenda focused on the person's immediate concerns and preferences, so sessions adapt to what matters that week.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Katie will work collaboratively to figure out which methods suit the client's goals and daily life. She checks in about what feels useful and adjusts tools and exercises based on feedback and progress.

The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit care into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some formats are better for hands-on skill practice while others can be simpler for a brief follow-up; Katie will discuss what will work best for practical goals and routines.
