New Solutions Wellness

My name is Ekaterina (Katya) Knapp. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I became interested in psychology when I was 11 and got my hands on my first psychology book. Back then, I found out how psychology can change our outlook on ourselves and the world, how it can help us improve ourselves and our lives. I earned my master’s degree in counseling psychology from the University of West Florida in 2019 and have been working with clients ever since. My background in law, business, and psychology help me work effectively work with people coming from different backgrounds. If you want to better understand your thoughts, behaviors and emotions and find compassion and kindness for yourself, I might be a good fit for you. I often help clients heal and find answers for the following concerns: difficulties forming satisfying relationships and building secure attachment lack of warmth and understanding in a relationship being not authentic unhelpful anxiety shaking panic attacks terrifying phobias saddening depression feeling lost I love a phrase "If you want to have what you don't have, do what you don't do". In therapy, you will: Increase your insight on your interpersonal strategies and coping skills (increased awareness); Better understand the roots and functions of your behaviors and how they were adaptive for you in the past; Evaluate how these strategies work for you now, how they help or hurt you; Decide on what to keep and what to change; Implement changes.
