Katy Thompson
My name is Katy Thompson and I work to serve those that know they can do better, but don't seem to have the strength they need to pick themselves up out of the ditch. I'm a licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes that this world is hard, but inside of us is something greater just waiting to be expressed and proved through a more fulfilling life.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
My first session will include reviewing the forms that were filled out and getting to know one another. We will talk about expectations of therapy, experience, and make a small goal for the week to work on.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I believe that my clients are the experts and their own greatest tool to finding something better. My belief in humanity is what makes me a great therapist. I'm ready to encourage and help anyone that is willing to give me a chance to be a part of their journey.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I'm in a position to serve individuals who can meet me halfway. I'm willing to work with someone that is ready to think outside of the box and trust me enough to put into practice what we discuss during the sessions. Therapy is for those that are brave enough to believe in something better!

My treatment methods
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I have a background in in-patient and outpatient psych. I saw patients experiencing acute and chronic symptoms that caused much pain for brief periods to even extended periods of time. I believe that there are helpful solutions for symptoms both acute and chronic. I like using solutions focused because it doesn't focus on the problem more that the solution. We are not our problems, and better yet, we can overcome our problems or learn to manage them better.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I've used CBT since I started in therapy. I like to use worksheets and role play when doing CBT. I like this therapy approach because it's practical.
Strength-Based
I've used strengths-based approach since I started therapy. It's a positive approach to problems and treaches us to look within ourselves for the strength to overcome things that can seem insurmountable. Everyone has strengths, we just need to be reminded of them from time to time.

Katy was a wonderful person to talk to when I was in need. She was honest and caring and made me feel more confident to take on the day.

I’ve been to few therapist. But katy is by far one of the more open minded ones and helpful when it comes to trying to be understanding of yourself.
