Katie Dixon, LPC, NCC

Welcome!

Welcome to my telehealth practice! Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of daily life, or held back by painful experiences from the past, you do not have to face life's challenges alone.

 

I view therapy as a collaborative process between you and I which is built upon openness, understanding, and hope. I believe the most important relationship you have is with yourself. Therefore, my work with clients centers around developing a healthy sense of self in order to manage life’s difficulties more easily. I specialize in working with clients through grief, major life changes and the management of anxiety disorders. I also partner with couples to establish and nurture new dynamics when old ways of relating are no longer working. Above all, I believe that healing is possible and available to each of us when we are met with compassion. As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe environment for my clients to express themselves, to be heard, to heal, and to explore the possibilities for making lasting changes. 

 

My approach to therapy is tailored to meet the unique needs of each client. Together we can identify the obstacles that you may be facing to navigate the path towards a more fulfilling life.  All referrals are welcome.

​

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. I earned my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University of Pennsylvania. In order to stay current with the most up-to-date therapeutic interventions in the field, I earn continuing education credits annually. My practice is based in Philadelphia and offer my services to residents across the state of Pennsylvania.

INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING

I work with adolescents ages 14 and older and adult individuals of all ages. If you have reached a point in your life where you feel something has to change, but are unsure how to make that happen, therapy can provide the tools needed to move forward. Whether you have been to therapy before or you are open to trying this for the first time, you are taking a very important step for yourself. We all face difficulties that require support from others and help is available. I would be honored to work with you through whatever challenges you may be facing at this time. If you have specific needs or preferences that I am unable to accommodate, I can provide a trusted referral from my network of colleagues.

COUPLES COUNSELING

Couples therapy provides a space to identify the unique patterns that you and your partner engage in so that you can establish new ways of relating and communicating with each other. Healthy and fulfilling relationships require consistent effort, open communication, attention, respect, and trust. If you feel your relationship is lacking in any of those areas right now, therapy can provide you with new tools to help repair and strengthen your bond with your partner.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Some clients need only a few sessions to reach their treatment goals while others may continue with therapy for an extended period of time to work towards resolving more deeply rooted challenges. The first thing I like to do is set up a free 15-minute consultation to determine if we will be a good fit for each other. Once your first session is scheduled, I will email you the paperwork needed for us to get started. All of your information is protected and confidential. Sessions can be conducted through either a secure video call or phone call.

 

As we continue our work together, we will be able to concentrate more on what is happening for you in the present through an open and ongoing conversation. I am flexible in my approach and welcome your feedback so that you can get the most out of your therapy sessions.
