About Me

Hi, I'm Kate! I'm a licensed clinical social worker, trauma-informed therapist, ADHD-er, and high-achieving creative. I help self-aware, perfectionistic, deep feeling women find worthiness, self-trust, and confidence while embracing all parts of themselves. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed and restless in daily life, while putting their needs last on the to-do list. I also work with mothers who are newly diagnosed with ADHD and are trying to make sense of what this diagnosis means for their daily life, and how it impacts relationships and identity.
We’ll explore the roots of your pain and help you reconnect with a sense of safety, emotional regulation, and wholeness. I incorporate EMDR, IFS, & somatic work into sessions. My approach is relational, person-centered, & rooted in deep connection. If you want a compassionate & collaborative therapist who invites humor into sessions, I’m your gal!
You deserve the same care and compassion you so freely give to others. If you’re ready to finally prioritize your own healing and rebuild a relationship with yourself that feels grounded, compassionate, & authentic, I invite you to reach out and schedule a free phone consultation—we can explore whether working together feels like the right next step for you.
My approach is relational, person-centered, & rooted in deep connection. We’ll move at a pace that honors your needs and your nervous system, incorporating tools such as EMDR, IFS, somatic work, and mindfulness along the way. If you are looking for a collaborative and compassionate approach to healing, consider scheduling a free 15 min consultation today.
