Kathryn "Katie" Carson-Decker, LCSW
About me
As a licensed clinical therapist in New York, I have over 15 years experience supporting individuals through life's journey and emotional challenges. My approach centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and trauma with empathy and professional expertise.
I specialize in addressing deeply personal struggles such as self-esteem, isolation, life purpose, and emotional healing from inner wounds. My therapeutic work focuses on creating meaningful pathways toward self-understanding, healthy communication, and personal growth. Drawing from evidence-based practices, I support clients in developing resilience, processing difficult experiences, and cultivating self-compassion.
My practice particularly welcomes individuals seeking a faith-centered perspective and those who want to become a better version of themselves. I am committed to walking alongside my clients, honoring their unique journeys and helping them discover inner strength and renewed hope.
I look forward to working with you and supporting you on this therapeutic journey.
