I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 7 years of experience working with co-occurring disorders in a residential and outpatient setting. Recently, I have transitioned back to an outpatient setting in efforts to share skills and knowledge with individuals in need outside of a rehabilitation facility. My main gravitation is towards clients with substance abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorders as well as select personality disorder diagnoses. I also have a history supporting clients with stress management and general coping skills, ADHD, and change of life issues (moving, loss, handling world stress).
I aim to educate and empower my clients in their mental health journey using skills and support based out of cognitive behavioral as well as dialectical behavioral therapies balanced with solution focused, strength based, motivational interviewing, and a client centered approaches.
It is my priority to meet every client's needs with the compassion, respect, and understanding they deserve while also being able to be honest and challenging when it is needed. My goal as a therapist is to enable a client to succeed for themselves, with themselves so that eventually (whenever that day comes) they don't need my help in the same manner as before. I believe my clients are competent, capable individuals with a desire to get better; the best thing I can do is armor them with enough skills/training/progress to be able to stay that way for as long as they so choose.
I am excited to go on this journey together!

I have had many therapists in my life and Kaitlin is the best therapist I have ever had. She is an expert at what she does. She is also the kindest most compassionate, consistent therapist I have ever met. I strongly recommend Kaitlin. She is an 11 on a scale of 1-10
