I am passionate about helping clients heal and transform through an eco-art therapeutic approach that combines art, nature and play. Working and playing in a natural setting, I offer a variety of mediums to encourage growth, both indoors and out. This allows an emergent and imaginative approach to therapy that adapts to fit the unique needs of each individual, couple, family and group. Moving from sand tray to clay, collage to art journaling, clients can walk outdoors on paths that meander past waterways and through old growth forests. With labyrinths, meditative walks and an enormous sound chamber, I offer many creative outlets.

I work within the modality of Somatic Movement Therapy and practice from the premise that body experience and movement hold a unique role in understanding and transforming human behavior. Sessions develop by directing clients awareness to sensation, impulse, movement and/or emotion in order to support physiological and neurological process. The pace and direction of this work is client led through verbal and nonverbal feedback. This approach is founded in developmental therapy, interpersonal neurobiology and attachment theory.

Sometimes you may feel overwhelmed by emotion or find yourself seeking out ways to numb yourself to your surroundings. Close relationship stress can make you feel alone or isolated and interferes with doing things that bring meaning and happiness. Therapy can help you reconnect with yourself, your inner strengths, resiliency, and capacity for ease and enjoyment. It can feel like a burden has been lifted working through past issues and connecting more in the here and now. Feeling more balanced and confident on the inside can bring you more connection, intimacy, and power to navigate the demands of life.

I offer a general counseling practice focusing on using personal strengths to untie psychological knots.

You've lost yourself. There was a time when you knew yourself well and felt strong in who you are, but life, relationships, uncertainty, and doubt have crept in and now you're not so sure of yourself anymore. You feel like you're always trying to please others, or making excuses for not being what you think you should be, and you feel like a fraud. Like there are different parts of you showing up for different people, and it's hard to be authentically you. And it's exhausting! Hi, I'm Katie!

Welcome! We are all emotional and relational beings so naturally our greatest happiness and heartache often come from our relationships and are ongoing throughout our lives. Experiencing anxiety, depression, feelings of being stuck, loneliness, spiritual challenges, struggling with communication issues, moving through discouragement, and unmet expectations in yourself and/or loved ones, is not a sign of failure or weakness. These experiences simply remind us we are human and provide opportunities for growth. The choice to do something different is yours. I welcome the walk with you on your journey of hope and transformation.
