Getting to know Katharine Shumaker
My name is Katharine, or Katie, and I have been practicing clinical social work in community based settings for 8 years. I currently provide therapeutic services as a License Clinical Social Worker or LCSW. I started my career in New York City providing behavioral services to older adults facing eviction due to hoarding disorder. Once I moved to Los Angeles, I worked as a forensic therapist to individuals in and transitioning out of the criminal justice system. I currently reside in Los Angeles, California and provide tele-mental health therapy services.
I work with adults who are seeking therapy to process and address mental health problems while utilizing behavioral skills to support their overall treatment.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
