Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

My name is Katie Potts, LMSW. I have a Masters degree in Social Work from Wayne State University, in Detroit. I got my MSW in 2004. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational interviewing in my therapy practice. I have experience working with individuals and couples struggling with negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, substance use, challenging irrational beliefs and paranoia, anxiety, history of trauma, eating disorders, addiction and codependency in family systems and individuals that identify as Adult Children of Alcoholics. I also have experience working with people struggling with issues related to grief and loss. I have worked extensively with individuals diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and have co-facilitated a DBT group. I use DBT skills in my therapy practice and encourage you to learn these wonderful life skills if you are open and want to. I look forward to being able to help you through whatever challenge you are facing!

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether therapy delivered online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person treatment. A major benefit is the flexibility it provides – clients can connect in the format that suits them best, whether by video call, phone, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care. All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and if a different approach or therapist would be a better fit, clients have the option to switch. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible way to work on mental health and relationship goals while maintaining the continuity and structure of regular sessions.
