She’s lovely, funny, genuine but also professional. She gives me the right feedback and weekly goals to continue to strive and function. I definitely recommend her.

Kate is simply the best. I’ve been to a variety of therapists over the years and none of them have given me as many tools that Kate has. I appreciate that Kate is incredibly responsive and always follows up to my concerns, even going above and beyond by providing affirmations and supportive quotes each week. Kate listens intently and understands my personality, which makes therapy so much more enjoyable than it ever has been. It’s been a lot of hard work, but I’m so glad I have Kate to get through it!
