Kattie tibbs, lpcc, provides mental health care within winona health’s new intensive outpatient program.
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Kattie Tibbs will provide mental health care for people in Winona Health’s new Intensive Outpatient Program. The Intensive Outpatient Program helps fill a gap between regular clinic visits with a psychiatrist or counselor and 24-hour inpatient care. “I believe in creating a welcoming atmosphere, getting to know each person and working toward what they want to accomplish,” said Tibbs. My goal is to help people achieve positive change by providing a safe space to explore problems and develop the tools needed to resolve issues. Tibbs noted that she was drawn to the integrative nature of Winona Health in working with others in the community. “The people at Winona Health care for people, not just focusing on their diagnosis,” she said. “As Winona Health launches new ways to support people in our community who are experiencing mental health issues, I’m excited to be a part of that care.” Born in La Crosse and raised in southeast Kentucky, Tibbs returned to the area for college and has spent much of her life in the Winona area. She graduated from Winona State University with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She also received her Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice from Winona State. She is certified by the Minnesota Board of Behavioral Health. Tibbs has four children. In her free time, she enjoys kid-friendly activities, swimming, exploring the outdoors, spending time in the woods, and researching fun facts.
