I look forward to talking with Kathleen every week. She is kind, empathetic and easy to talk to. She is clearly very knowledgeable in her work; I appreciate how she incorporated varying approaches in her practice: holistic perspectives like the energy in the world and art therapy, but also scientific/clinical perspectives in discussing the chemistry of neurons firing in our brains. She gave me strategies and tools to try out that really changed my perspective. Even after our first session I felt proud of my progress. I feel better equipped to take on the challenges that I face.
