Therapy with Kat
Becoming a counselor has been a dream of mine since I was 16 years old. Because of the abusive and neglectful environment in which I grew up, I know what its like to be a scared kid in need of support and I want to be able to be that presence and support for another. Within my work, I focus on helping children, teens, and young adults through facing and processing their trauma. I also work with clients on anxiety, depression, and work/school stress.
I want to help others know that they are not alone in their journey and they can lead happy lives despite what they have gone through.
In addition to my graduate studies, I am also trained in Trauma-Focused CBT as well as working with the following populations: transgender & non-binary youth, older adults & anxiety, domestic violence survivors and early childhood (3-5 years).
