About Me
I'm Catie. I hold a Bachelor's in Psychology and Sociology from the University of Missouri - Columbia and a Master's in Social Work from the University of Missouri - Kansas City. I have specified training in EMDR and the Gottman Couples Therapy approach.
My passion lies in supporting adolescents, adults, and couples. I'm dedicated to providing a space for safety, warmth and justice to empower all individuals to function at their greatest potential. The path through emotional hardship is challenging, and the only way is through.
