Are your trying to figure out if you want to stay in your current relationship? You feel resentful, anxious and afraid of being hurt again. You don't know who you are or if you can trust yourself after so many years of neglecting yourself. If you're tired of being in this cycle and ready to make a change, together we can explore what keeps you gravitating towards the same person, figure out if staying or leaving your relationship is the best decision for you, learn what to do when your fears are getting the best of you, and learn how to trust yourself so you can have the relationship you deserve.

I have worked with a wide variety of clients dealing with a range of symptoms. I enjoy working with different clients from adults to kids and individual, families, couples and groups and I believe we can all learn from each other. I enjoy offering my experiences and skills to help others better understand themselves and their relationships. I understand that life challenges, both big and small, can affect people's mood and productivity. I am caring, compassionate, understanding and a great listener. I provide a very non-judgmental and caring space for clients to explore the challenges they are faced with.

Welcome! I'm Kate, your friendly guide on a journey of exploration and growth. In my practice, I prioritize the physical exploration of emotions and memories. Whether we combine body responses with talk therapy or allow the body to express itself without words, our time together will give you a unique space to process your past and experience sensations of peace and healing. I also don't pretend to be a neutral therapy robot– I bring my genuine observations, thoughts, and reactions to sessions (with a bit of creativity and humor too).

I have been offering psychotherapy to individuals, couples and families for the past 27 years. I would particularly like to work with couples, whether it is in the very beginning of the relationship to check for compatibility, during the relationship to deal with problems that arise, or working on amicable separation. I offer conflict resolution to individual, couples and families. I am also trained in divorce mediation to work on uncontested divorce where we can create a win/win situation for both parties. All the work can be done in a few sessions and this could save you legal fees that can run into tens of thousands of dollars.

At the heart of our struggles and pains are relationships. At the heart of our hopes and dreams are relationships. Whether it is your relationship with anxiety and depression, with your career, with your partner, sister, son, daughter, boss, or parent-everything is about relationships. Therapy helps you tackle some of the most challenging questions we all face. How do we repair what needs to be fixed in our relationships, including the relationship with ourselves? What needs attention, a new perspective, a better skill, or emotional resolve to enable you to become more authentic and improve your connection to self and others?

Change is stressful, even when it comes with joy or success, or when you’ve worked toward it for a long time. It’s natural to have lots of emotions or even doubts arise in times of transition. Promotions, new relationships, moves, the death of a friend or loved one or beloved pet, relationships ending, moving into a new stage of life - change always involves elements of the unknown. For over 20 years I’ve been helping people navigate life transitions. I meet each client where they are, to help them grow and develop in ways that help them through challenging times.

Therapy is a place where you can slow down and experience feeling welcomed and celebrated exactly as you are. I’m passionate about working with folks who are exhausted from the “grass is always greener” mentality and are ready to deepen into a process of self exploration and healing. In a world where productivity is often valued above connection, creativity and authentic self-expression, you may find yourself feeling depleted and lonely with a yearning for something more.

The Individual Therapy, Couples Therapy, and Integrative Coaching I provide is insightful, proactive, and inspirational. I will support you to more fully connect with yourself, and more deeply in your relationships. When you are grounded, and your relationships are solid, your work in the world will be meaningful.

Psychotherapy offers emotional and psychological space for change. It is an opportunity to decode what is not working and with therapeutic guidance provide clients with a scaffolding to try out new thinking and ways of feeling. I see psychotherapy as a kind of lab, where clients safely get to try new approaches out, notice what works and what is most effective. My work is about helping clients; whether a problem to be solved, a desired behavioral change, or finding meaning during a life challenging experience. I encourage individuals to contact me and explore that change. I am here to help.
