Hi, I’m Katherine. I'm passionate about connecting with fellow humans who, like me, are beautifully imperfect and always evolving. “Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self-acceptance.” -Brene Brown

My therapeutic approach has been described as a comforting cup of espresso, rich with warmth and encouragement, inviting you to awaken your inner strength and chart your own course.

I draw from a variety of methodologies, always putting my client’s needs first. When helpful, I weave in relevant theories to support our work together.

Supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate life’s changes, challenges, and unique journeys is at the heart of my work.

I am also devoted to uplifting fellow helpers, from counselors and mental health professionals to first responders, medical staff, and educators.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me with my family and pets, soaking up the outdoors, tending my garden, capturing moments with my camera, knitting cozy creations, or getting lost in a good book.
