Dr. Katie Franke is a licensed psychologist and Board Certified Behavior Analyst who has spent more than 15 years walking alongside children with autism and developmental differences, and the families who love them. She believes that real progress happens when rigorous science meets genuine relationship, and she brings both to every session.

Through Palmetto Behavior Solutions, Dr. Franke works collaboratively with children and families to set meaningful goals and build practical strategies for everyday life. Her work focuses on communication, emotional and behavioral regulation, and empowering parents with tools that actually work at home, at school, and in the community. She also supports families navigating sleep challenges, toileting, and selective eating, the everyday hurdles that matter just as much as the clinical ones.

As a parent of two herself, Dr. Franke approaches every family with the same empathy, patience, and care she would want for her own children.
