Hello! My name is Kate, and I am Licensed Professional Counselor. I have a Master of Science degree in Clinical Counseling, and have been in practice since 2017.
I have worked professionally in private practice, behavioral health, child and family mental health, and trauma treatment programs. My experience is in stress management, anxiety, depression, ADHD, family dynamics and relationship issues, parenting issues, and PTSD/trauma related issues.
I have extensive experience working with various cultural, faith based and socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as the LGBTQ+ community. As a therapist, I am open, non-judgmental, and encouraging. My approach to therapy is, 'strengths based' and, 'trauma informed', meaning I focus on your internal resourcefulness and work with you on, "what happened to you," instead of, "what is wrong with you." My mode of therapy is foremost, person-centered. I value creating a strong rapport, and I emphasize creating a safe space for clients to feel heard and valued.
I understand therapy is a vulnerable experience and finding the right person to talk to can feel intimidating. I am so glad you are taking this step toward greater mental health and wellbeing.
Additional areas of focus: Relationship issues, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Eating disorders, Sleeping disorders, Parenting issues, Anger management, Self esteem, Career difficulties, Bipolar disorder, Depression, Coping with life changes, Compassion fatigue

Katelyn is a really great listener, experienced and friendly. She is totally nonjudgmental and you can feel really open to her, which makes talking in sessions easier. She gives various ways on how to deal with an issue and welcomes any mean of communication. She is really encouraging , caring and helpful! I would definitely recommend Katelyn to any person I know that asks for any help :)
