I have a passion for working with clients from many diverse backgrounds. I grew up in a small town where mental health awareness was not always present and children, like myself, who were going through their own unique and individual challenges did not always have support or an outlet for expressing their emotions. I aim to work with clients who are searching for this same type of support environment and positive outcomes through making plans for their growth. This is in connection with using research-based mental/emotional health strategies to achieve goals and create authentic and personal changes in their lives.

There are times when life can really throw us some nasty curveballs. It's hard some days to even put one foot in front of another. Our joy can quickly vanish and be replaced by fear and sadness. I know that struggle. I was diagnosed with a significant health issue three years ago which led to horrible depression and anxiety . Now, I truly have a better understanding of where my clients are coming from and just how heavy depression and anxiety can be to carry. I also know it's possible to get your joy and peace of mind back. Whatever your struggles are, they can improve and I would be honored to help guide your path.

Life can be hard, with many ups and downs, all the unknowns, especially in today’s world. My passion is helping those with anxiety and depression, providing high-quality, effective, evidence-based treatment with children, adolescents, and adults. I’ve worked as a licensed therapist for 20 years and my practice uses an outside the box approach when it comes to therapy.

Life can be incredibly painful. We can find ourselves feeling stuck, confused, lonely, anxious, despairing, or lost. We want to make sense of our past & present circumstances, map out a path forward, all in a way that feels true to our values and honors the pain we experience. My clients often struggle with issues like depression & anxiety, grief & loss, trauma & abuse, identity & meaning formation, sexuality & pornography, spiritual distress & relationship strife. Whether highly motivated or exhausted and on the verge of giving up, I am honored to meet each client where they are and walk with them step by step toward change.

Do you feel suffocated by others’ expectations, afraid or unsure of how to ask for help, overwhelmed with commitments, unable to take a break, like you’re just trying to survive the day?

One thing is for sure though. You’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to make sense of what’s happening to you and take back control. Most of all, you’re ready to regain balance in your life so you can finally breathe easy again.

Navigating parenthood can be challenging, & sometimes you need some extra support. If your child struggles with anxiety, anger, big emotions, trauma, tantrums, transitions, depression, grief, low self esteem, and more, then you’ve come to the right place! I specialize in working with children and teenagers utilizing a play-based approach to promote growth and change while partnering with parents to give new parenting tools. Play is the "language" of every child which allows them to process their emotions. With teens, we play games, draw, listen to their music & more to "get into their world" so they feel seen, heard, & understood.

I empathize for today's teens & adults struggling in this ever-changing world. We are faced with immediate decision-making & strain, which is not fair when we're trying to figure who we are, much less what we want to become as adults. We typically feel lost, confused, and misunderstood when communicating to others our needs and even interests, therefore struggle asking for help and support in and outside our homes, schools, and community. Whereas this seems to be a "young person's issue," many of us adults battle these situations as well, struggling with hopelessness and believing we are alone as a result.

As humans, I believe we have everything needed within ourselves to heal and grow. Sometimes we just need a little extra support while we find these inner resources. With a compassionate and collaborative approach, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where you can come exactly as you are and explore who you want to be. I am passionate about working with individuals experiencing women's issues, substance abuse/misuse, anxiety, depression, self-discovery, and complex family issues. I am here to support you in your healing journey toward finding your inner resources, and living your most authentic, fulfilling life.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I obtained my undergraduate degree in Clinical Psychology and graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. My therapy approach is taken from an attachment theory and perspective. I believe humans are wired to feel connected, and that we all greatly benefit from healthy relationships. Without this connectedness, we may experience loneliness or isolation. I provide a safe, accepting space for individuals, couples, and families using a positive Existential Therapy Model to support self-awareness, meaningful relationships, and values of life.

Hey! I'm Katherine, a mom, wife, and mental health counselor. I'm passionate about providing a safe space for people to work through some hard things. I'd love working with you if you have a general idea of your goals but don't know how to get there on your own. I'm trained in different types of therapy but I'm missing information that only you can bring to the table: your life experiences, passions, and vulnerabilities. Let's work toward increasing the knowledge you have about yourself, being able to recognize your emotions and how they affect your body, and learning to sit with the uncomfortable stuff.

I aim to create a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship while my clients work toward wholeness where they feel wounded. Symptoms of anxiety or depression often usher us into difficult life change that can eventually lead toward improved emotional health. I work from an eclectic theoretical orientation using attachment theory, Internal Family Systems, Narrative-Focused Trauma Care, and faith if clients desire. I utilize Strengths-Based theory with teens, which is an evidence-based approach to suicide prevention. I specialize in teens and work well with high-performing women who struggle with anxiety.

Are you feeling stuck repeating the same cycle over and over again? Are your usual ways of handling stress not working anymore? Are you struggling in your relationship with your partner, family, or friends? Maybe you know something needs to change but you are feeling powerless to make that change. At some point we all encounter difficulties in our life and feel unsure of our next steps. This is common but can feel lonely and isolating.

It is my passion to help people help themselves using a holistic approach to address the whole person. Sometimes we get so caught up in the details of life that we have difficulty seeing the big picture. Counseling can help you get more out of life, help you reach your goals and work through challenges and move forward to create and live the life you desire. Stress, anxiety, phobias, depression and life transitions are just some of the issues that I typically address within my practice.

I find success with my client's utilizing CBT, client-centered and psycho-dynamic therapies along with DBT skills. The benefits of DBT have proven to be tremendous and can be applied to many issues where appropriate.

Welcome. You are taking a step to seek help and I'm glad you found your way here. Most of the clients that work with me have been in therapy before and are at a place in their healing where they have "talked it out" yet still experience unresolved emotional pain in their daily life. They realize they need more than traditional talk therapy and are open to exploring ways to integrate their body into their healing journey. They may feel a little cautious, possibly even intimated to try different techniques, yet possess enough curiosity and determination to discover peace and harmony within their mind and body.
