You’re Not Alone
Something has to change. You already know it.
Maybe you wake up anxious and can’t explain why. Maybe you’ve been running on empty for so long that you’ve forgotten what it feels like to just be okay. Maybe something happened, or a lot of things happened, and the weight of it is finally catching up with you.
Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: reaching out takes courage.
I believe you are wired to thrive, and if something is getting in the way of that, I’m here to help. When you’re ready, I’d love to hear from you.

Healing that goes deeper than coping strategies.
I use an approach built on the belief that you have an innate capacity for healing. Together, we explore what might be getting in the way of that, like old patterns, unprocessed emotion, or the ways you’ve learned to protect yourself.
In our sessions, we pay close attention to what’s actually happening for you, in real time. That’s where change takes root, not just as something you understand, but as something you can feel.
Couples Therapy
When you’re ready to reach each other again.
My approach is grounded in attachment science. The work focuses on the emotional bond between you and your partner, and what’s been getting in the way of it.
A central part of this work is helping each of you access the softer feelings that usually stay hidden beneath the conflict. When those deeper emotions become visible to your partner, something often shifts.
You don’t have to keep having the same fight.

I’m Kate.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I do this work because I genuinely believe people can heal, not just cope, but actually transform their relationship with themselves and with their lives.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and actively engaged. I work alongside you, genuinely invested in your healing, and in you.
