I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 20 years of experience. I have experience in helping clients with a variety of issues including stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy related issues and other issues. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and I am here to support you in that process.
My Evening and standing appointments are done via zoom, are 60 minutes and are reserved for clients that are self-pay or utilizing their insurance. I accept some appointments via the BetterHelp calendar but BetterHelp sessions are limited to 45 minutes which essentially is 40 minutes of therapy. This is a limiting factor of the site; I am not paid for engaging with clients for longer than 45 minutes so it is important to come to these sessions prepared as our time here is somewhat limited.
You do not have to go through this journey of life alone. Allow me to meet you where you are at and help be your guide in this amazing journey called life. Together we will find healing through proven models of treatment that I am formally trained in and have practiced for many years.
I accept insurance as well and generally reserve later appointment openings for zoom calls and clients that prefer to utilize their insurance.

Katherine, from day one, has been a support. She cuts through the nonsense and challenges thinking patterns in a way to help you reframe thinking or change behavior. I appreciate her candor and friendly approach. Katherine doesn't sugarcoat things and it makes for a rapidly evolving and dynamic time processing things with her. Phenomenal therapist!

Katherine is, for me, what I wish every therapist was, for their clients. She is understanding, wise, insightful, down to earth, and easy to talk with. I have accomplished so much growth in my mental health since beginning sessions with Katherine and I cannot recommend her enough!
