Katelyn was so helpful during a time when I was struggling with life changes and anxiety - she was supportive and helped me feel listened to and validated! I have grown so much and feel much more confident in many of my relationships :)

Katie is by far the best help I have had in getting my mental health in order. After a fairly traumatic family and life changing issue she has been nothing but supportive and kind. She has offered ways to help me understand the things going on and ways to take myself out of a bad situation or at least help deal with it mentally. I've been given a variety of excersizes, projects and things to listen and watch to help me through this trying time. She's responsive and very forward with her schedule as well. Always letting me know if she'll need to change the schedule in advance. She's excellent.
Katie is amazing and I would hands down reccomend her to anyone that ever asked.

Katelyn has helped me in many faucets of my life. Relationships, loss, and dealing with my daughters. I appreciate the insight she has given, the videos on narcissism, books to read, and words of wisdom. She has great understanding and empathy for others and is an amazing person to work with. If I need services in the future I would like to be linked back with her. I enjoyed working with her and have grown in the time spent with her.

I am so thankful to have connected with Katie. She is so comforting and I owe her so much. She is a real gem! The most down to earth woman I have met and I can’t thank her enough for that.
