Hello! I’m Kat, and I believe therapy should be a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and valued. My practice is built on creating a safe, inclusive, and affirming environment for every client. Much of my work is with adults and adolescents navigating life stress, relationship struggles, and the lasting effects of family dynamics. I also support clients facing attention concerns, as well as those seeking clarity about how to change deeply rooted patterns that no longer serve them.
My style is warm, conversational, and rooted in evidence-based strategies that make growth feel both possible and practical. I offer support and honesty, walking alongside you without judgment, while also providing the direct feedback needed for real change. You bring the stories; I’ll bring the highlighters. Together, we’ll make sense of it all!
I am accepting new clients! If you’re interested in working together, please complete the new client intake form on the website linked above.
