Hey there! I'm Kate, a licensed therapist offering a warm and inviting space for individuals seeking support and guidance. With a focus on adults facing substance use disorders, young adults with Down syndrome, as well as those navigating life transitions, sadness, overwhelm, and leaving controlling groups, I provide compassionate care tailored to your unique needs and goals.
I offer a sanctuary where healing and empowerment intersect. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. Together, we'll explore your experiences, strengths, and aspirations to create a personalized roadmap towards healing and resilience. If you're ready to embark on this journey, I invite you to take the first step.
In our sessions, expect more than just a listening ear; expect a partner in your journey towards liberation and self-discovery. Through compassionate guidance and evidence-based strategies, we'll illuminate the path forward, one step at a time. Your journey towards healing is about reclaiming your voice, your agency, and your innate capacity for resilience.
