Katie Plant, LMSW

She/Her

Licensed Masters Social Worker

Is your family going through a transition? Is your child going through a tough time? Are emotions hard for them to address and process? I’m here to guide your child and your family and help bring a calming ease into your home. I’m here to work with your child and with you to work through obstacles, conflict, and emotional dysregulations.

I like working with youth starting in pre-k through adolescents on social/emotional learning, skill development, emotional expression and relationship obstacles. I like working with parents on parent coaching and education to mirror these skills at home and helping to teach emotional regulating skills. 

I utilize a strength based approach with all of my clients, as well as utilizing Emotionally Focused therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) with teens and parents.  With my younger clients, I use play therapy as a way for youth to express and strengthen coping strategies.
