I’m Dr. Katie Carhart, a licensed clinical psychologist offering telehealth therapy for adults throughout Connecticut. I provide online therapy and specialize in working with high-functioning, overwhelmed, and emotionally sensitive adults who are seeking deeper support for chronic stress, ADHD, anxiety, burnout, and trauma. My approach is integrative and somatic-informed, blending evidence-based therapy with nervous-system and whole-person care.
​
Many adults reach out after years of holding everything together, only to realize that insight alone hasn’t been enough. Therapy can help you make sense of long-standing patterns, reduce emotional strain, and create change that feels sustainable rather than effortful. I work with clients across Connecticut, including those in Hartford, Fairfield County, New Haven, Stamford, and surrounding areas. You can read more about my overall approach to therapy here.
What I Help With
Connecticut is home to many high-responsibility roles, healthcare, education, leadership, caregiving, and professional environments with significant emotional and cognitive demands. I provide online therapy as a licensed Connecticut telehealth psychologist specializing in trauma-informed care, ADHD therapy, and somatic approaches. Many adults who reach out to me are capable, insightful, and dependable, yet privately exhausted from holding everything together.
​
I support adults wanting online therapy in Connecticut who are navigating:
-
Burnout and emotional exhaustion
-
Anxiety, chronic stress, and difficulty slowing down
-
ADHD or suspected ADHD, including executive functioning challenges
-
Perfectionism, overthinking, and high internal standards
-
Trauma responses such as shutdown, freeze, or hypervigilance
-
Difficulty setting boundaries or prioritizing personal needs
-
Feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or “not like yourself”
-
Somatic therapy for nervous system dysregulation in Connecticut
​

My Approach (What Makes Online Therapy in Connecticut with Me Different)
My work is integrative, trauma-informed, and neurodivergence-affirming, designed for adults who want both depth and direction.
​

​
I blend:
✔ Polyvagal Theory & Nervous System Regulation:
Understanding how stress, threat, and safety shape emotional and behavioral patterns.
✔ Somatic Therapy and Embodied Therapy Approaches:
Supporting regulation through the body, not just talk.
✔ ADHD & Executive Function Support (Adult ADHD Therapy):
Practical tools for organization, transitions, follow-through, and energy management.
✔ Depth-Oriented Insight and Attachment Therapy:
Exploring attachment patterns, emotional themes, and internal narratives.
✔ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Mindfulness/Mind-Body Tools:
Structured strategies for anxiety, avoidance, and overwhelm.
​
This approach allows us to stay focused on goals while remaining responsive to what’s happening in your real life.

What is your therapeutic approach?
My approach is integrative and holistic, meaning I work with the whole person rather than focusing on symptoms in isolation.

This allows us to work with both insight and nervous-system regulation so change feels sustainable and embodied.

Many clients in Connecticut seek support for trauma and PTSD, anxiety, burnout, ADHD and executive-functioning challenges, relationship concerns, and nervous-system dysregulation. My work is integrative, trauma-informed, and body-based.
Who is a good fit for your practice?
I work best with adults who appreciate a therapist who can be both directive and collaborative. Sessions may include practical, evidence-based skills alongside deeper exploration of beliefs, relationship patterns, attachment, and nervous-system regulation. Many clients come to me after trying therapy in the past and feeling stuck, and are seeking a more personalized, integrative approach that meets them where they are.
