Hello! I am a Jungian psychotherapist, primarily based in the East Bay. I work with children, teens and adults. Most of my clients are people who have experienced being othered or marginalized, either by society or by family and friends. Many of my clients are queer, and/or neurodivergent, and/or have experienced trauma through abuse and loss. All of my clients are seeking to cultivate healthy relationships with themselves and others. Our work together aims to heal the wounds that get in the way of that happening.
As an east coast native, my approach is direct, while also warm and kind. I like to compare my approach to picking up a rock to see what’s underneath. In other words, I work with my clients to bring to light the parts of themselves that have been hidden or suppressed, so that they can grow to experience, and accept their whole Self.
If interested, please reach out to schedule a consultation call, where we can discuss what you're looking for and whether or not I would be a good fit. In any case, take care, and best wishes.
Call or Kaitlin Dougherty now for a free 15 minute consultation - (408) 752-5298

In session, I pay close attention to clients' relationships with their bodies, minds, spirits, and the world, seeking to transform negative dynamics into instances where they learn to trust themselves, and honor their body, feelings, and needs. Passionate about expressive arts work, I also use dance, movement, and journaling as powerful tools for healing, supporting women in overcoming trauma.
