Wise Mind Counseling!
​If you are looking to build a 'life worth living' and find balance, you are in the right place. ​

Katie Bowler, LCSW, PMH-C
My passion is helping my clients find balance and effective ways of coping with emotions and stress. I primarily work with teens & adults with harmful coping behaviors, personality disorders/BPD, self-harm, substance use, mood disorders, anxiety and trauma. I also have a subspecialty in perinatal mental health including during postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, pregnancy, loss and PPD in spouses.
Working with me be client-centered, non-judgmental and at your pace. I hope to inspire you to make change in your life, work towards your goals, process life events and build useful coping skills. I'm always open to feedback and am constantly trying to improve my practice.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy has been my primary mode of therapy for the past 7 years in individual and group settings. I have almost 15 years of experience working in the field of mental health in many different settings & roles. I also utilize CBT and Motivational Interviewing.
I wholeheartedly believe that everyone should be authentically themselves and have their own journey in finding out what that means. I am a strong ally for the LGBTQ+ community and welcome all diversity.
I received my Masters in Social Work from Rutgers University in 2013 and am independently licensed in NJ, VA, MD, NC & DC. I also provide clinical supervision for pre-licensed clinicians in those states. I am also certified in Perinatal Mental Health by Postpartum Support International.

What I Do Best
We work with adults and teens (11+) who are struggling with mental health, trauma, substance use,
self-harm/problem behaviors and overall transitions & stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy
My main practice is through Dialectical Behavior Therapy. DBT focuses on finding balance through concrete & useful coping skills. DBT has been found to be helpful for many different mental health & life challenges that cause dysregulation of emotions. The four modules of DBT are mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
Trauma-Informed Care
Healing from trauma is an incredibly brave and difficult process for many people. I can walk with you to build coping skills to manage the effects of trauma, process events in the past and overall help you to move forward at your pace.
Perinatal Mental Health
DBT is incredibly applicable and effective in perinatal mental health. I specialize in helping you to process the duality of motherhood - that it is both beautiful AND challenging. Both are valid.
I work with pregnancy, postpartum transition, pregnancy loss, postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression and PPD in partners/Dads.

I am certified in Perinatal Mental Health through Postpartum Support International.
