Book Three: Katie Plumb

Katie Plumb is a psychotherapist practicing in Long Beach, California. Katie received her undergraduate degree at Scripps women’s college in Claremont CA, where she majored in psychology; she graduated with an MA in clinical psychology from Columbia University in NY, with a focus on trauma and resilience. She received her MSW from University of Southern California, which allowed her to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

For the duration of her academic years and career, Katie has been dedicated to understanding the impact of, and recovery, from trauma. Having overcome much of her own Complex-PTSD through intensive therapy, Katie is passionate about being beside others on their journeys from victim, to survivor, to thriver. She is trained in therapeutic modalities such as Brainspotting (BSP), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) for true trauma resolution.

When not working, Katie loves to draw, sculpt, and make silly gifts and cards for friends and family. Walking around Long Beach in the sun is another favorite, as is FaceTiming with her (perfect) nephew.

Originally from Washington, DC, Katie came for the education, and is staying for the weather.
