Let's Connect (475) 267-4988

We are an insurance-friendly practice, partnered with Mentaya for out-of-network reimbursements. Immediate openings available! Sometimes we are negatively impacted by situations, identity/relationship challenges, trauma, or other concerns, that are hard to navigate alone. I particularly love supporting and empowering women across every life stage. I also welcome same-sex couples and alternative relationships, to help navigate those unique struggles. It's hard being different! And being supported and validated should be a non-negotiable. You want to be seen, and accepted, not just tolerated. I get you.

We utilize client-focused, evidence-based care, tailored specifically for you. Specialized training in trauma, nature therapy, sex-informed therapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, women's mental health, life transitions, aging, grief, mindfulness techniques and interventions, to help you manage and rise above your struggles. Together we will fill your toolbox!

Finding the right therapeutic partner can feel challenging, but it’s an important first step—and you don’t have to do it alone. Reaching out takes courage. I invite you to begin a journey of growth, healing, and lasting change with me, and I look forward to supporting you in achieving your goals.

You can expect individualized care and treatment goals. Part of your treatment plans may consist of "assignments" such as worksheets, writing prompts/journaling, creative or outdoor experiences, as well as "deep dive" explorations of thoughts and patterns. Because we all learn in different ways, treatment plans must also allow each client to find the best ways to help them achieve their goals.

The therapies I find most beneficial are ones that have been proven to work in research studies. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and as part of that I like to offer "homework" in the form of worksheets, videos, writing prompts, etc. to help change unhelpful patterns. I also try to tie in Nature as in integral part of all treatments, due to its many benefits for a myriad of conditions.

Hosted by

Katerina Philbrick

Join us for an ongoing group focused on YOUR needs. Part psychoeducation, part therapy & coping, part peer support; offering a welcoming space to explore mental health, resilience, and personal well-being in a supportive, empowering environment. We’ll learn about topics like managing stress, emotional wellness, life transitions, illness, loss, loneliness, and more—providing tools for navigating uniques challenges for this life stage, with confidence. This is a working group, so expect a little bit of prep (maybe some reading or worksheets) now and then, but mostly we will learn from each other in real time. Refreshments will be available!
