About

Hi, my name is Katie and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor! For as long as I can remember, I have been interested in people and sought to understand them. Through my own lived experience, I learned to turn towards curiosity and, in doing so, create deeper relationships with others. I often find systemic issues and social constructs impact our abilities to see one another and I strive to create a space for someone to feel seen and heard. I am inspired by this work because I’m given the opportunity to sit with clients during difficult times and celebrate their achievements. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings including community mental health clinics and emergency/crisis services. From these experiences, I am motivated by peoples’ abilities to persevere through hard times and strive towards bettering themselves, even when it seems impossible. As a favorite author of mine, Glennon Doyle says, "We can do hard things.”

I work with individual adults and couples who are seeking to deepen their understanding of themselves and create meaningful change in their lives. My areas of focus include stress and anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship issues, sex and intimacy, and trauma. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming. I have a unique interest in the intersection of societal systems and trauma and offer a safe, non-judgmental space to work towards healing. My prior experience in a variety of treatment settings has given me advanced training in working with individuals with Bipolar disorder. I also enjoy helping family and loved ones deepen their understanding of Bipolar disorder.

My therapeutic style incorporates authenticity, compassion, and humor. It is my hope to be a partner to you on your journey towards growth and healing. I work with each individual to create a space in which you feel safe to be brave. I integrate psychodynamic, relational, and attachment-oriented approaches in my practice to best fit each individual’s needs. Working with me is collaborative. We will work together to decide goals and I will utilize strategies from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Narrative Therapy to help you reach them.
