Katherine has been very helpful to me. She has been consistently nonjudgmental and gave me the space I needed to work through my divorce.

Katherine Ward is an excellent therapist! I always come away feeling like I was heard and understood. She gives me ideas for ways to work out concerns between sessions, but lets me know she's just a message away in case I need something. She's upbeat and positive! I'm glad she was chosen for me.

Insightful, sharp, empathetic and real. In the weeks that I have been working with Katherine I have started to unravel some of the bonds that have tethered me for decades. Thank you Katherine!
