Hello! I'm Katie, and I own The Treehouse with my husband, Alex. I serve as the Clinical Director for our wonderful agency and am also a therapist, author, speaker, and proud mom! I am AuDHD and believe that my unique brain is my most significant professional asset. I am licensed to practice independently in New Mexico and New York, however most of my work involves supervision and training new therapists. I am a Registered Play Therapy Supervisor (RPT-S), Autplay Supervisor, and am an Approved Provider of Play Therapy Continuing Education, which I have been honored to do at local, state, and international levels. 

​

Before opening the Treehouse, I had many formative experiences working in residential treatment, schools, and home-based therapy. I am a prescriptive play therapist, and I love seeing neurodivergent adults and mixed neurotype couples. I utilize play, art, and sand in the majority of my work, but I specifically love Internal Family Systems (IFS), Autplay, and DIRFloortime. I am a strengths-based therapist and supervisor, and I utilize a person-centered approach. 

​

The Treehouse was originally my private practice, a small one-room play therapy space on Albuquerque's west side. After my children and I went through our community's autism services, I realized that I needed to provide more training and employment to therapists in New Mexico so that our autism community could have access to providers that supported and celebrated differences, instead of further pathologizing them. With the help of Alex Bassiri, Erica Jacoby, Stephanie Perdue, and Kelsie Bacon, The Treehouse went from a one-room play space to a large agency that supports neurodivergent humans across the lifespan. When I am not at The Treehouse, you will see me in the community with my family doing our favorite things like swimming, exercising, and of course- PLAYING!
