About Katherine
Katherine "Katie" Royer is a licensed professional counselor (LPCC) in New Mexico with 16 years of experience. She centers sessions on the person in front of her, aiming to make speaking about difficult feelings easier. Katie creates a calm space where people can say what they think and feel without judgment. She focuses on practical steps that help people move toward clearer thinking and better daily routines.
Her work often addresses stress, anxiety, and low mood. She helps people cope with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and major life changes. Katie also supports concerns around self-esteem, motivation, sleeping problems, anger, bipolar mood patterns, and obsessive thoughts and compulsions.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s lead and build trust. Katie also draws on attachment-focused ideas to look at relationship patterns and on cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking. Mindfulness practices and emotionally focused techniques are woven in when they fit the client’s goals.
Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and small steps that feel doable. Katie works with LGBT concerns and parenting-related stress, as well as jealousy and family conflict when those show up for an individual. The overall aim is to help people feel more capable and steady in daily life.
To start, Katie asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session based on availability. The approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
How Katie’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person’s lead and listening deeply to build trust. Online sessions can use that same stance by letting the client set the pace and topics, with the therapist reflecting and clarifying what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections; online conversations can uncover these patterns and test new ways of relating in real time.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit the goals and personality. That collaboration means plans can shift over time as needs and priorities change.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Confirm the session formats before booking, since options are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it simpler to maintain regular appointments, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed, helping therapy to fit into everyday life rather than replace it.
