Hi, I'm Katie, a Licensed Clinical Social. Helping and supporting others has been a driving factor in my life; therefore, I began my career as a teacher. My education and experience in the classroom greatly influenced me; however, I saw how difficult it is to learn when one is struggling with many emotional and mental health needs. While in graduate school, I transitioned to working with families in more of a case management role. During that time, I started noticing how the adults I worked with were often struggling and had not received the help they needed. After completing graduate school, I began working in an inpatient hospital that treats mental health and chemical dependency. After several years working with patients individually and facilitating group therapy, I transitioned to managing an intensive outpatient mental health program for senior adults. In this role, I facilitated group therapy and met with patients individually at times. I greatly enjoyed getting to know my clients and cheering alongside them as they made progress. While I value group therapy, I recognize that it is not the right fit for everyone. Therefore, I have set up a private practice to meet the needs of individuals in ways I was unable to do in previous roles. I believe change is possible and that each person has strengths and life experiences that they can draw upon to help themselves move forward. My passion is helping clients utilize what they already have, learn additional tools for coping, and develop healthier ways of thinking.

Life can be both beautiful and challenging. At times, we all require support to navigate our journey towards healing. I help my clients find their confidence, repair their relationships with themselves, and heal from past traumas. I am an EMDR Trained Therapist, specializing in the treatment of trauma and PTSD, CPTSD, maternal mental health, anxiety and depressive disorders, adjustment disorders, relational trauma, self esteem, interpersonal difficulties and phase of life issues.

I help people struggling with anxiety symptoms due to a major life change. Most of my clients have undergone different changes, such as a break-up, divorce, loss of a loved one, or any transition in their life. Going through a life change, can affect so many areas in your life, living you with a sense of not being you, or out of control. I will help you to navigate the different emotions you are going through until you finally feel empowered and happy with this phase in your life. I will provide you with tools necessary to initiate your healing journey.

Hello, and welcome. I have worked in behavioral health care for over 20 years.

I strive to offer a welcoming environment where you can express yourself freely and feel truly heard. Achieving your goals for wellness is a process, not an event. You deserve to heal, to be well, and to be supported along the way—and I’m grateful for the opportunity to walk with you through that process, one step at a time.

I have lived a long and colorful life. Like everyone else, I've made good and bad choices and learned from each. I have 22+ years experience in the mental health and substance abuse treatment field. I DO NOT JUDGE, AT ALL, PERIOD. I can be both blunt and gentle as appropriate. My role is to offer another perspective, a way to see life more fully and function better, no more, no less. I don't pretend to have all the answers but only one slice of wisdom. I just share what can help someone. Some people are not yet ready to be helped. Yet for those who are feeling lost on life's journey and are willing to listen and learn, I'm here to assist. My life work can be summed up in three words, "offering people hope.
