Katharine "Katie" Blum

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am licensed in Louisiana as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and have been working as a therapist for over a decade. I am also a genderqueer therapist (they/them) who wants to create a loving, understanding space for the LGBTQIA+ community.

I want the process of counseling to be a safe journey towards the life my clients can say “yes” to. I believe in the client being the expert of themselves, and their path is set by their dreams, hopes, and desires, not my agenda. I believe a full, beautiful life is possible for all people, I want to help you in your path towards that beauty, whatever that may mean to you.

My specialty is working with clients who are neurodivergent, but specifically those with Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD. However, I also have experience working with clients with various issues, diagnoses and concerns.

I work from a humanistic perspective meaning that I believe humans are naturally good and possess the abilities to live the lives they want to live.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and adjusting to life changes – research has shown that online therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. A major benefit of remote therapy is its flexibility. Clients can choose the format that fits them best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility often makes it easier to make therapy part of a busy life. All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they need a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical, evidence-backed way to address everyday mental health needs while offering multiple ways to connect with a therapist.
