Connect with Katie McLean Hoar
I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself is the greatest agent of change in therapy. Through cultivated trust, I support clients to explore darkness in order to find what brings them light and joy. I offer an approach focused on the needs, wants, and hopes of the person or couple in the room, which means that my approach varies on a client by client basis.
I specialize in relationships, sexual health, and creativity. I also have experience with grief and loss, anxiety, family work, and spiritual exploration. I work with humans across the gender and sexuality spectrums, couples in monogamous and non-monogamous relationships, and artists/ makers who feel stuck or ready to enhance their creative processes.
Note: I do not currently accept clients under 22.
