I am a compassionate, client-centered therapist who focuses on creating a safe, supportive space where people can explore their experiences and work toward meaningful change. My approach blends evidence-based practices with genuine connection to help clients build insight, resilience, and confidence. My style is collaborative and empathetic, communicating in a way that feels grounding and approachable. This combination makes clients feel both heard and guided.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, we'll spend time getting to know each other and discussing what brings you to therapy. I'll ask about your goals, your current concerns, and any background information that helps me understand your situation. We'll talk about how therapy works, what you can expect of me, and what you're hoping to achieve. By the end of the session, we'll have a clearer sense of your needs and a plan for how we can move forward together.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strength is my warm, structured, and client-centered approach. I create a safe, supportive space while providing clear guidance, helping clients feel both understood and empowered.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

My ideal clients are individuals who are ready to explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and who are open to building practical skills that support meaningful change. I especially enjoy working with people seeking clarity, motivation, and healthier coping strategies.

I felt so comfortable with Kathy was able to open up. I felt as though she understood how I was feeling and the issues that were consuming me. I am so excited about starting a counseling program with her. I know the outcome is going to be so extremely helpful. -Truly, I feel connected big time!

I've been struggling after the loss of my son. Kathy is very warm and empathetic to what I'm dealing with. She seems to really understand and want to help me find a way to heal and move forward. I'm looking forward to future sessions with Kathy.
