If you're like many of my clients, you've tried coping on your own but things aren't getting better. As a psychotherapist, I believe therapy is a path to healing and growth. Through a collaborative approach, I aim to help you achieve your goals, develop healthier relationships, find relief from distressing symptoms, and discover more comfort within yourself and in your life. Together, our work will address the barriers, behaviors, and past issues that inhibit change, in order to improve present day problems and symptoms.

Therapy might seem intimidating, but I work from a very friendly and relatable approach. My style of therapy is affirming and non-judgmental. I like to think of our sessions as two humans co-navigating whatever challenge you’re going through. I’m just as curious about how your past shaped you as I am about your goals for the future. On my therapy couch, you can safely explore your deepest thoughts and worries with someone genuinely interested in your story.

Coming to therapy is a very courageous step and I want to explore and address different aspects of our lives. It is possible that clients may experience feelings of empowerment sometimes, or feelings of distress and overwhelmingness. I look to provide an open, comfortable, and safe space for all of my clients.

Hi, my name is Katherine, and I strive to offer a supportive and safe space to a variety of clientele. As a lesbian woman who has navigated her own battles with anxiety and depression, I understand how important it is to have a space where you feel heard and understood. If you’re dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, or the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ community, I’m here to help. My approach incorporates a range of therapeutic methods, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy, and client/compassion-based practices.

Do you feel attached to limiting beliefs, anxiety or unsupportive patterns? Do you feel stuck? I believe awareness is at the root of every endeavor, which allows for a deeper understanding of what you need to feel empowered, connected, and safe in your body to lead the life you desire and deserve. I can help you find direction and build a language around your experiences that feels authentic and regulating. I aim to bring an additional level of awareness to integrate the mind and body into the process to help you access the root of your suffering to feel empowered, liberated and embodied.

I work with clients who struggle with anxiety or depression related to their relationships, self esteem issues and difficult transitions.
Are you feeling upset, overwhelmed or lacking confidence due to transitions in your life? Adapting to a change, even if it is wanted and expected, can be challenging. Life changes can involve losses such as the end of a relationship, a death or job reversal; but positive changes, like leaving for college, entering the work force, becoming a new parent and relocating can also be stressful and scary. People often fear and avoid change causing them to feel stuck and leading to missed opportunities.

Are you feeling stuck and disconnected from yourself? Are you working to change old habits and self-sabotaging behavior? These women's issues can manifest into depression, anxiety, or a state of consistent stress or low self-esteem. Women experience many disruptions during their lifetime and during the creation of their self-hood. It may feel like you have lost yourself and lost your sense of identity. Women also experience an overwhelming sense of emotions. For women of color, the pressure to reconcile racial identity, language, economic disparities, and bi-cultural obligations can create feelings of sadness and powerlessness.

For everyone there are patterns in our relationships with ourselves and with others that often go unnoticed and unexplored. Through a psychodynamic and trauma-informed approach, I work with clients to identify these patterns and to develop insight so they can experience more emotional growth and well-being. Change can be hard and we often use avoidance as an ineffective coping mechanism.

Therapy is a space to slow down and listen more deeply—to the patterns that shape our lives, to the wisdom of the body, and to the quiet parts of ourselves that often go unheard. In my therapeutic practice, I aim to support your process of understanding, accepting and shaping your life and alleviating symptoms. I work with adults who are looking to improve their relationship to themselves and/or others. This includes those who are coping with trauma, shame, stress, depression or anxiety and are looking to build their skills and self-esteem. Together, we make room for curiosity, compassion, and transformation.
