My name is Katie Patton and I am a North Carolina native, mom of three, and proud military spouse. I received my Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from East Carolina University in 2011 and my Master's in School Counseling with add-on licensure as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in 2019. I am also a National Certified Counselor (NCC). I provide counseling services to children, adolescents, adults, families, and groups, tailoring treatment to each individual's unique needs, strengths, and goals. I strive to provide a safe, compassionate, and collaborative environment where meaningful growth can occur.

Clients can expect a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment where authenticity, curiosity, and collaboration are valued. My goal is to help clients move forward and learn a holistic way of healing to challenge unhelpful patterns, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and develop tools to navigate life's challenges with greater resilience and hope.

Taking the first step toward counseling can feel overwhelming, and you don't have to navigate it alone. Whether you're carrying the weight of past experiences or long for peace, you deserve a space where you feel heard and supported. Healing is possible, and I would be honored to walk alongside you. I invite you to reach out and schedule an appointment.
