Getting to know Katie Kaufman

Hi there, I'm KATIE! Hello, my name is Katie Kaufman, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Southern California, working with clients statewide via telehealth. I hold a Master's in Social Work from San Diego State University. I offer therapy and coaching services to young adults and adults, specializing in depression, anxiety, ADD & ADHD, stress, work/career, self-love, self-esteem, life purpose and meaning, life transitions, relationship issues, grief and loss, and more. My approach I utilize various treatment and therapeutic modalities depending on each client's unique needs and preferences. Most frequently, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing, as these help me and the client build a shared understanding of their reality and work together to chart a path forward. Other modalities I use include but are not limited to: Internal Family Systems (IFS), Client/Person-Centered Therapy, Experiential Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Grief Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Multicultural Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Prolonged Exposure Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Vipassana Meditation, and Strength-based Therapy. My focus I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for young adults and adults dealing with life transitions, purpose, social pressures, school/work/career, and relationships. These challenges often present as anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, and self-esteem issues. I work to help my clients navigate these transition periods and life challenges while building a lifelong toolkit of skills to help them feel better about themselves and develop a more positive outlook on life.

Katie is not only knowledgeable and experienced, but kind and compassionate. She digs down to find out root causes of my feelings and provides the necessary tools to overcome them. Anyone facing anxiety would be lucky to have Katie guide them in freeing their mind and gaining control back of their daily lives.
