Katie Paddon

Licensed Professional Counselor

Do you have trouble getting out of bed in the morning—or evening, if you’re a shift worker? Do you feel anxious, stressed, or overwhelmed by work or major life changes? You are not alone.

I provide individual and couples counseling for adults, using EMDR therapy, trauma-informed approaches, and other tailored strategies to help you overcome stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Our sessions are client-led, allowing you to cry, laugh, vent, or even cuss—whatever feels right for you.

With several years of law enforcement experience and extensive training in domestic violence and trauma, I bring a unique understanding of stress, resilience, and personal growth to our work together.

I am also a dog mom to two spirited rescues. Blanca, my therapy dog, loves joining sessions and helps create a calm, supportive environment. Outside of work, I enjoy crafts, all things Halloween, and serving my community on the board for Hays County Crimestoppers.

Are you ready to reduce stress, heal from trauma, and feel better about your daily life? Call, text, or email me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

First Responders

As a former first responder myself, I understand the unique stress, trauma, and challenges that come with this line of work. With over seven years in law enforcement and additional experience in helping professions, I know firsthand how physically and emotionally demanding this career can be.

I provide counseling for first responders, offering a safe and supportive space to process trauma, manage stress, and build resilience. My approach is tailored to your needs, helping you prioritize your mental health while navigating the demands of your profession.
