Sometimes we all feel stuck or like we could benefit from more support. Therapy provides an opportunity to be heard, acknowledge our feelings, and work towards positive changes in our lives. Deciding to reach out for counselling can be an intimidating task, but being understood grounds us in our own truths, bodies and experiences so that we can show up in our lives as the people we truly are. I believe we are most authentic when we can openly and honestly express ourselves in an environment that is both supportive and safe. You can count on having the space you need to fully explore your truth in my practice.
I strive to provide a a non-judgmental environment where you'll feel safe and comfortable to be authentic.  I take a client-centered, integrative approach to practice, drawing from multiple therapeutic modalities.To put it simply, I view therapy as a collaborative process, where together we can work towards positive change in your life.
Feeling safe and supported to show up as the person, friend, family member and partner you know you can be and are can feel freeing and joyous. Choosing a therapist can be overwhelming, so if you have questions or want to see if we are a good fit, I'd be happy to set up a time to call and answer any questions you may have.

The human experience is diverse, and your story is unique. With that said, I often work with people who grew up in alcoholic or substance-using families, queer people, and those who have experienced trauma. It's important to me that you feel supported throughout the process, which means making sure you have the skills and resources you need to feel secure as we engage in depth work.

Collaborative & creative, I love talking to Katelyn about relational dynamics & religious/spiritual de/re-construction. Her care for her clients and passion for psychotherapy is evident, plus her vibe is the cool older sister you wish you had growing up.

I take an integrative approach to practice, that is tailored to your preferences and needs. I often draw from DBT and CBT for practical skill development, narrative therapy for depth work in talk therapy, and incorporate somatic elements to resource the nervous system and encourage wellness in both body and mind. I am always open to adapting my approach in response to your comfort levels and needs
