ABOUT
KATIE FLEMING THOMAS, MS, LPC

Finding the right support is personal. Beyond credentials, it’s about feeling seen, heard, and understood. Whether you’re seeking therapy or clarity through assessment, my goal is to offer a compassionate, collaborative space where insight and care come together.
People seek support for all kinds of reasons, sometimes to process something difficult, other times to find clarity, or to understand themselves in a deeper way. My role is to meet you wherever you are and offer steady, thoughtful support as you navigate forward.
I’m a Fort Worth-based Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) offering both therapy and psychological assessment for adults and emerging adults. I hold a B.S. in Psychology from Texas Christian University and an M.S. in Counseling Psychology from Tarleton State University. My journey has taken me through private clinics, higher education, and community organizations, where I've provided therapy, conducted evaluations, taught college-level psychology, and served as a Disabilities Services Specialist.
My practice offers a somewhat unique combination of psychological testing and therapy services, allowing me to support clients from multiple angles. This dual approach means I can help identify underlying patterns through comprehensive assessment while also providing the therapeutic tools to address what we discover together.
With testing, I approach each evaluation with care and curiosity, aiming to create reports that are both accurate and useful. My assessments are comprehensive and strengths-based, designed to clarify learning profiles, attention concerns, emotional patterns, and accommodation needs, all in plain language that helps clients take the next steps with confidence.
In therapy, I primarily integrate Mindfulness-Based practices with Somatic Experiencing, nervous system education, and EMDR to support clients navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, trauma, and major life transitions. My approach is consistently trauma-informed, collaborative, and rooted in deep respect for each person's unique journey and lived experience. I strongly believe that therapy benefits from moving beyond conversation alone, which is why I emphasize sharing concrete skills and body-based practices that help you cultivate internal steadiness and strength. Together, we focus on transforming stress responses and nurturing a deeper sense of security within your nervous system, because I've witnessed firsthand how much more effectively we can navigate life's challenges when we operate from a place of a regulated nervous system.

LIFE OUTSIDE PRACTICE
As a native Texan, I feel most inspired in the natural world, hiking, sunrises, adventures, and quiet moments in the garden with my husband and our animals, Ruby (a spirited Doberman) and Runt (our very opinionated cat). When I'm not spending time with my family and busy with life, I'm working out (I'm really into dancing to house music), resting, or occasionally daydreaming about living on a secluded farm in Iceland. I also create guided meditations and host live meditation sessions through Freebird Meditations, my platform dedicated to making mindfulness practices and somatic work accessible through courses, talks, and community meditation experiences.
Between life's commitments, I seek moments to nourish my creativity through photography and art, to ground myself through meditation and yoga, and to feed my curiosity through continual learning. Thank you so much for taking the time to learn a bit about me. I look forward to connecting and supporting you on your path forward.
