I find that people can be in all sorts of stages in their lives and readiness to change. What matters more is the willingness to explore, be curious, and most likely ask some difficult questions. One of my greatest strengths is my ability to connect with people with all different kinds of life experiences. I tend to relate with those who identify as neurodivergent, or feel "other" in some way. My approach is very non-judgmental, and I do well with those who live "alternative" lifestyles, such as polyamory, ethical monogamy, kink/BDSM, and/or sex workers. I've been a therapist for a long time and no one has scared me away yet!

I work with people that learned to be hard on themselves as a way to survive, but could benefit from kinder ways to motivate themselves. They are often talented, smart, funny, creative, and caring but tend to be too critical of themselves. They struggle with feeling good enough, even though they may have a track record of overachieving. As a result, they may feel stressed, exhausted, and overwhelmed. They come to therapy because they want a more sustainable, balanced, and authentic life. Together, we navigate the complexities of being their true selves in a society that may not value their unique strengths and points of view.

When the pressures of life get to be too overwhelming, we tend to put ourselves last. I work with clients who get so caught up in meeting everyone else's needs that they lose themselves and start to feel burned out. If you are living a life that is taking too much from you and you need to find some balance and rest, you have come to the right place.

Hello, I'm Kate! I enjoy working with adolescents, adults, and families. I am training in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (a trauma-focused style of therapy), and I approach therapy through an attachment and client-focused lens. I believe that all people seek security, connection, and a sense of belonging. When these fundamental needs aren’t met, especially in early childhood, mental health symptoms and other struggles can arise.

Life can be a lot and talking with someone can help. Sometimes it’s a matter of having an unbiased ear to listen, someone assuring you that you have value, or someone to help get your thoughts in order. We all have different experiences and needs, and finding a therapist can be helpful. I am passionate about mental health and working to make tackling our own mental health issues approachable. I have a compassionate and realistic approach to mental health and view it as a necessary part of anyone’s life. I believe therapy is most effective by providing a non-judgmental space for people to be heard, appreciated, and validated.

I am not accepting new clients at this time. I specialize in trauma and also work with individuals coming to therapy with a wide spectrum of concerns. My goal is to help clients reduce, manage, and resolve their issues. Clients learn to increase their emotional IQs and emotional regulation skills, develop better communication skills, strengthen their most resourced self, and manage ego states (my anxious part, depressed part, my angry part, etc.). I use cognitive behavioral therapy, Internal Family Systems (parts work), and other therapies and modalities. In session, treatments are offered and practiced, such as EMDR.

I have experience working with individuals, groups, and families. I have worked with individuals across the lifespan from age six to later adulthood. My therapeutic approach incorporates principles of client-centered, strengths-based, solution-focused, narrative and cognitive-behavioral therapy along with trauma informed care. I work with clients utilizes an individualized treatment approach because no two people are alike and each person's therapeutic journey is a unique experience. Although these are my approaches to therapy, I believes it is imperative to support clients the way they want to be supported and give them the opportunity to live life more meaningfully.
