In our hectic world, life can often feel difficult... You may feel worried and have difficulty quieting your mind, perhaps feeling like it's all you can do to get out of bed each day. Maybe you worry about your weight and obsess about food (what you want to eat but believe you shouldn’t), overeating, dieting, starving, or purging, tormented and consumed by self criticism and a harsh inner critic.... You're ready for a change but aren't sure where to start or feel too worn down to try something new. You want to be free from anxious, worried thoughts. You want to feel more alive and engaged in life and silence your harsh inner critic.

Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P

Professionally and personally, I have a passion for social justice work and am driven to help all people successfully navigate an increasingly complex multicultural society. As technology shrinks the world, we are exposed to an ever more diverse set of people, communities, ideas, and perspectives. Whether we are a part of historically privileged or oppressed communities, all of us are working to find our place in this neo-diverse society. More and more, I see this challenge represented in my clients as they seek understanding of their issues, strengths, and identities.

Your life may not be what you want it to be. You may be struggling with addiction, depression, anxiety, past or present trauma. You need someone to talk to, who will listen, not judge, who wants to help you find a way to a better life. I subscribe to the wise words of Viktor Frankl: "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." Let me help you meet that challenge. I strive to create a trusting relationship with my clients, which is the foundation that allows a successful outcome. I have extensive training in trauma and the symptoms that often result from these experiences.

Struggling to survive and other days thriving without effort? Struggling to get through the week, day or even hour? You are not alone, and you shouldn’t feel ashamed. We all need some guidance and direction at times. Not because we are weak but because sometimes, we get tired of being strong, and guess what? That is perfectly okay. Let’s just sit and talk. No pressure, no expectation, no right or wrong way. Just talk. Breathe and release. Sometimes we find it difficult to express ourselves because we can’t find the words. No need to find anything just release what you have inside.
Katie Anderson Counseling
Counselor, MA, LCMHCA
Verified
Hi, I'm Katie! I help women and girls thrive in their relationships while living boldly and authentically. So often we can feel stuck, especially in relationships - friendships, romantic relationships, or with family members. Maybe you are exhausted from giving so much of yourself to avoid conflict, or you are so focused on what other people think about you that you neglect yourself. Deep down, you don't believe your feelings and needs matter as much as other peoples'. Maybe you are a mother who sees her daughter struggling with anxiety and low self-worth. You want to see her thriving, but you don't know how to get her there.

*Accepting New Clients* Why cancer now? Hearing the diagnosis of cancer can be overwhelmingly devastating, emotionally and physically. Treatment and tests can trigger anxiety, depression, existential crisis, or the exacerbation of traumas and conflicts. It feels like your life has an expiration date and with each ache, sleeplessness, fear, and sadness they become a reminder of that “c” word taking control of your life as well as your loved ones. Are you struggling to find some sense of it all? Are you on a quest for some semblance of normalcy? Are you questioning how can you continue to create the life you want to live?

Life with children is full of new, constantly changing chapters. Some beautiful and joyous, others challenging and overwhelming. Challenging chapters may include learning your child has specific learning or behavioral needs, feeling concerned for a withdrawn teen, navigating your child’s adoption narrative with them, or providing a safe space for your child to process trauma. In the midst of trying to understand your child, you, the parent, have your own needs as well. As a clinical psychologist, I partner with children AND caregivers to provide holistic and culturally sensitive care to navigate new seasons of life, together.
