About Katie
Katie Shadrick is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people who have stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and related concerns. Katie also supports clients facing addiction, sleep problems, anger, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and issues connected to relationships and family dynamics.
Katie uses direct, practical methods in sessions. She listens to what is happening now and helps people learn coping skills they can use right away. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are a frequent part of her work to spot patterns of thinking that keep problems going.
Client-Centered Therapy is another part of her approach. That means she focuses on the client’s own goals and decisions, and works at a pace chosen together. Motivational Interviewing shows up when people are weighing change or feeling stuck and need help deciding what step to take next.
Katie has experience helping people deal with grief, trauma-related concerns, mood and personality disorders, and substance use issues. She also addresses more specific struggles such as body image, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, and feelings of abandonment.
Sessions aim to be practical and straightforward. Katie helps people build skills for day-to-day life, clarify what matters to them, and take small steps toward their goals. She asks about what’s working and adjusts plans as needed.
How Katie uses evidence-based approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client’s goals and priorities, with the therapist following the person’s lead and supporting choices. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, respectful conversational space to make sense of what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, low mood, and sleep difficulties and gives tools people can try between sessions.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Katie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try first and revisit the plan if adjustments are needed. This makes the process collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.
Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, help cut travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a day. Katie integrates practical CBT exercises and motivational interviewing steps into remote sessions so people can practice skills between meetings and measure small changes over time.
