About
Katie
Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker who enjoys meeting new people, hearing their stories and supporting them with making the changes they want to make. I take time at the beginning of therapy to take a step back, acknowledge your successes and identify current challenges before we start working towards your goals. Therapy should feel safe and comfortable, and challenging at the right moments. In this work I prioritize a respectful and collaborative relationship, meeting you where you're at and moving at your pace. I look forward to working with you.
Outside of work I'm usually spending time with family, friends and pets. I love walking around and exploring different neighborhoods, thrifting, having a good latte from a local coffee shop, and quilting. Road trips and travelling are also a must.
