For many women, the motivation to become healthier, happier, and more productive is impeded by their mental health. I believe that if women could feel better emotionally, then other challenges in their lives would become easier to address. This is a process that I personally understand all too well.

My skill as a heart-centered hypnotherapist quickly addresses underlying issues in a few therapy sessions in a gentle manner often making medications unnecessary.

My own healing journey began decades earlier; it was a long and seemingly slow journey, with little guidance as I tried more techniques than I can recall to work my way out of misery, exhaustion, and victimhood and into empowerment. I knew inside I was going to one day “arrive” as a better version of myself…I just didn’t know when, or how. Things began to change once I embraced the fact that I needed medications to help me feel good enough to take steps to be a better version of myself. As I felt better, I began to understand that, if I wanted to continue to be a better version of myself, I needed to develop a way of listening to my own inner guide. As I learned to do this, I discovered I was capable of experiencing far more health and beauty in my life than I had previously thought. As I progressed through my own healing, I realized that the more empowered I became and felt, the easier it has been for me to make healthier decisions, the more content I am able to choose to be, and the more interesting life is becoming; eventually, I no longer needed medications. I work with women to find the right medication that helps them feel well enough to make significant changes in their lives. I also offer an effective therapy modality that cuts to the root of what is holding women back, allowing them to step into their empowered, happy, and thriving selves.

First session

As women, we give so much of ourselves to everyone else that it often gets in the way of our ability to thrive; I believe we deserve to feel good, and that the world is a better place when we are thriving. My passion is to help women get to a better place. I invite you to take your first steps to feeling better by reaching out to me today.

Strengths

I create synergy between medication management and therapy and I foster active collaboration with you regarding your care plan. My skill as a heart-centered hypnotherapist quickly addresses underlying issues in a few therapy sessions in a gentle manner often making medications unnecessary.

Ideal clients

I work with women who are struggling to keep up with their daily life, who feel trapped in a never-ending cycle of stress and overwhelm, and who are hoping to find a way out. These women know that “there is more” but just can’t seem to pull it off. They look at other women and wonder” why everything is so easy for them – what is wrong with me that I can’t figure this out”. These women are ready to feel better NOW. My unique approach blends medication management AND effective therapeutic techniques to women who struggle with depression, anxiety, and feel "out of control".

Treatment methods

Hypnotherapy

My skill as a heart-centered hypnotherapist quickly addresses underlying issues in a gentle manner often releasing old, destructive patterns in just a few sessions.

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

I use a modality similar to tapping that works to loosen limiting beliefs so that you can clear away the heaviness surrounding old patterns making it easier to make new choices and establish new and effective patterns

Polyvagal Therapy

Polyvagal exercises are aimed at reprogramming your nervous system to believe and function as though you are safe. Learning to live in a "calm" manner vs living in fight or flight is paramount to your healing and progress.

I find Kathleen to be very comforting and warm. As an individual on the spectrum with a history of trauma I needed what she brought to the table. I needed compassion, understanding and patience. I look forward to continuing our sessions and working through the things that brought me to her.
