Katie Aston, LMSW
Psychotherapist and CBRS provider at Treasure Valley Mental Health, Boise
Kids don't always have the words for what they feel. Katie helps them say it through play, and helps you bring more calm and joy back to your home.
About Katie
Katie earned her Master of Social Work at Boise State University and has extensive experience working with children and their parents. Her approach is warm, compassionate, and relationship-based: kids do their best work when they feel safe with the person across from them.
With younger clients she uses play therapy, which lets children express emotions, work through experiences, and build healthy coping skills in ways that are natural, engaging, and right for their age. She's passionate about helping kids express and regulate emotions, grow their confidence, and build social and communication skills, while supporting parents in bringing more joy and better day-to-day functioning to the whole family.
