My Name is Katie Saelee and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I believe in collaboration and working together with my client to develop an individualized plan. I am passionate about helping others and empowering my clients to achieve personal transformation. I have worked in multiple settings such as community, home, school, group, and private practice.
My approach
I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches to meet you where you are at. However, I specialize in client-centered approach and cognitive behavior therapy.
My focus
I have experience working with young adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, and identity issues. I have a special interest in working with Asian-American young adults who struggle with stress, sadness, and anxiety due to the expectations and challenges they face in their upbringing, cultural, and multi-generational issues.
My communication style
I believe it is important to build trust and I hope to create a space that will allow you to explore. Together we will work collaboratively and explore ways to help you reach your goals. I am gentle yet I will challenge you towards your personal growth.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always been curious about understanding people and why they feel or react the way they do. In grad school, on my last day in my Intro to Counseling class, my professor gave me a quote that fits me perfectly, "Heart-to-heart conversations mean the most to me." I instantly started crying and was shocked at how well that fit me. I am passionate about helping others.
My goals for you
We will explore and work collaboratively in order to create the best-individualized plan to help the client meet their goal.
My first session with you
My hope is to create a space for you to feel seen and heard. I also would like to help my clients feel empowered in their lives and learn effective ways to deal with their stressors. Let’s begin by exploring together and start the healing process today.
