Real Stories of Healing & Transformation
See how therapy has helped other people just like you navigate their journey to mental wellness:
Katie is an incredible, hard working therapist that’s helped me significantly since I started seeing her this past January. This has been my first experience with therapy and she truly has taken the time to walk me through the different types of therapy and several coping mechanisms that I use in my everyday life. Katie is so compassionate and understanding and has never made me feel judged or that my trauma is insignificant.
K. F.
I’ve been in therapy with Katie for almost two years now and
I can honestly say she’s helped to improve my mental well-being and my overall relationships
with friends and family in a way most other therapists could not. She has taught me many valuable techniques to overcome and manage my anxiety and to focus on what’s most important to me in my life...She really listens to what I’m saying...I appreciate everything she’s done for me thus far and look forward to continuing therapy with her.
A.
Katie has been transformative in my healing journey, particularly through her skilled use of EMDR. Her compassionate, professional approach has provided me with a safe space to explore and heal, leading to significant positive changes in my life.
I highly recommend her for anyone seeking effective therapy with a
therapist who genuinely cares.
R.H.
Katie has proved to me time and time again that our sessions together are truly invaluable. Each session is curated to fit both what I am capable of and what can put me out of my comfort zone on my own terms to make strides in my therapy journey.
After many mismatches, I have found a home with Katie. She creates a safe space for such delicate hearts, and racing minds...With Katie as my guide, teacher, and cheerleader I know life's challenges are going to be amazing opportunities to grow.
