I work with individuals and couples navigating complex relationship issues. If you and your partner are struggling with escalating conflict, constant fighting, betrayal, or simply feeling disconnected from one another, let me help you build a love that lasts. If you are seeking more stable dating relationships or are rebuilding post separation, I can help you process the past and identify what you need in future relationships. I use attachment research and evidence-based interventions to teach you where things went wrong and how to build a stable, healthy relationship moving forward.
I am trained in the Gottman Method, an evidence-based and clinically-tested approach to couples therapy. I also have training in Ego State Therapy approaches and level one clinical hypnosis. Both methods are helpful tools for processing trauma and understanding attachment wounds. I am warm, directive, and structured with my clients.
Research shows that the counselor-client relationship is the most important factor for success in therapy. For this reason, I offer a free 15-minute consultation to determine if I will be a good fit for your counseling goals. If you are interested or have questions about counseling, please reach out to schedule a consultation.

Kate is an amazing therapist. She is Gottman trained and enjoys her work with couples. She is also trained in parts work and likes utilizing this theory to help clients uncover the root of problematic thinking and behavior. I highly recommend her.
