I believe therapy can be a beneficial tool to assist those who are hurting, dissatisfied, or filled with uncertainty. Sometimes we find ourselves struggling in our relationships. We may have persistent sadness or worries that get in the way of life. We may have losses that are too difficult to process on our own. Or we may feel our life has just gotten off track. There are many reasons to seek therapy. Do you want to learn and try new coping skills? Do you want to improve a relationship? Do you want help working through a problem in your life? I can help. I offer therapy in-person or online and have evening availability.

Not accepting new clients
Hi, my name is Kate Spitzer. I'm a youth therapist, working through Fresh Start Behavioral Health, who has experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, and neurodivergency. I am LGBT+ affirming, and strive to create an environment where my clients feel understood and accepted. I believe that therapy can be fun, which is why I love utilizing crafts and board games in session. Feel free to bring a snack, blanket, or whatever you need to feel comfortable! I want every client to leave my office feeling excited, or at least hopeful, about therapy. The only reason you should leave feeling scared/bad is because we saw a weird bug!

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck? Maybe life feels really heavy right now, and you’re not sure how to handle it all. Whether it’s school stress, friendships, family challenges, or just figuring out who you are, I’m here to help. As a counselor, I specialize in working with teens (ages 11-18) and young adults (18-24) who are navigating the ups and downs of adolescence. It’s normal to feel like things are out of control sometimes, especially when so much is changing in your life. My goal is to create a space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported—without judgment.

I work with a variety of clients, all having one thing in common: They are unhappy with the direction their life has taken and seek insight so that their lives can change. Whether they are wanting to process a life event and only want to come one or two sessions, or whether they want to make a long-term connection with a counselor, I tailor my therapy to my clients' needs. My approach is interactive, engaging my clients in conversations that help them process past or present events, so that they can find their own path to healing.

There is a curious habit that I've noticed, especially when working with teens, that clients will mostly only work on the "issue of the week." This can have numerous benefits and can also delay the client's progress on any underlying concerns or patterns. Ideally, once a client has agreed to their treatment goals, they continue to take attainable steps towards that goal in therapy and in their daily life. When a client feels comfortable with their therapist to share their thoughts, emotions, and vulnerabilities, then deeper work can happen.
