I’m Dr. Katie Carhart, a licensed clinical psychologist offering telehealth therapy for adults throughout Arizona. I specialize in working with high-achieving, overwhelmed, and emotionally sensitive adults navigating burnout, anxiety, ADHD, executive functioning challenges, and nervous system dysregulation through a warm, integrative, somatic-informed approach.
​
Many people I work with are capable and driven, yet feel chronically depleted or stuck in survival mode. Therapy offers a space to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and build a more grounded, sustainable way of living- not just one that keeps you surviving.
What I Help With
Living in Arizona often means balancing demanding professional roles, caregiving responsibilities, and the pressure to stay productive while managing heat, relocation stress, or limited downtime. Many adults who reach out to me are functioning well on the outside while feeling depleted, overwhelmed, or disconnected internally.
​
I support adults navigating:
-
Burnout and emotional exhaustion
-
Anxiety, chronic stress, and difficulty slowing down
-
ADHD or suspected ADHD, including executive functioning challenges
-
Perfectionism, overthinking, and high self-criticism
-
Trauma responses such as shutdown, freeze, hypervigilance, or emotional reactivity
-
Difficulty setting boundaries or identifying personal needs
-
Feeling “on edge,” disconnected, or misaligned
Many people come to therapy when pushing harder is no longer working and they want a deeper, more sustainable way to feel better.
My Approach (What Makes Therapy with Me Different)
Therapy with me is integrative, somatic, and neurodivergence-affirming, designed for adults who want both emotional insight and practical tools.
​
To learn more about my approach read more here.
​
I combine:
✔ Polyvagal Theory & Nervous System Regulation
Understanding patterns of activation, shutdown, and stress stored in the body.
✔ Somatic and Embodied Approaches
Gentle strategies that help your body feel safer and more regulated.
✔ ADHD & Executive Function Support
Shame-free tools for planning, follow-through, transitions, and energy management.
✔ Depth-Oriented Insight Work
Exploring emotional patterns, attachment themes, and internal narratives.
✔ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), ACT, and Mind-Body Tools
Skill-based approaches for anxiety, avoidance, and overwhelm.
​
This work bridges insight with nervous system support so change becomes something you can actually feel, not just understand.

How Online Therapy Works in Arizona
I am licensed in Arizona and provide secure telehealth therapy to adults throughout the state, including Tucson, Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, Flagstaff, and surrounding areas.
​
Sessions are held via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform and typically include:
-
90-minute initial intake
-
50-minute weekly or biweekly sessions
​
Online therapy is especially helpful for adults balancing work demands, caregiving, travel, or unpredictable schedules.
Psychological Testing & ADHD Evaluations
I also offer telehealth-based adult ADHD evaluations and psychological assessment services for Arizona clients when appropriate. These evaluations are designed to provide thoughtful diagnostic clarity and practical recommendations.
Learn more about testing and assessment here.
Therapy Intensives
For clients seeking focused support without months of weekly therapy, I offer therapy intensives.
​
You can learn more about my intensives here.
​
Common areas of focus include:
• Somatic / Polyvagal Reset Intensive
For anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, trauma responses, or emotional overwhelm.
• Executive Function / ADHD Reset Intensive
For planning challenges, overwhelm, time blindness, avoidance, and follow-through difficulties.
​
Each intensive includes:
-
A 4-hour therapeutic deep dive
-
Personalized strategies and skills
-
A tailored PDF action plan
-
A 45-minute follow-up session within 2–4 weeks
​
We can also design an intensive tailored to you: including the concerns and skills that you want to focus on.
