Kathryn has been the breath of fresh air throughout my entire healing process. I’m able to laugh, cry and say whatever it is that’s on my mind — even if it’s a jumbled mess. She listens intently to what I say and always has a supportive response or solution to help. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone.

Kathryn is a great listener with a gentle and kind demeanor. She provides me an outlet to explore my anxiety and expresses understanding for my concerns. Kathryn helps to lead me to a productive conclusion at the end of our session, making me feel like our time was well spent and that I have some actionable steps until the next time we meet.
