I have only been seeing Kate for a couple of months and there is already a viable difference in my mental health. She has been so incredibly supportive and encouraging, and has walked with me through some very difficult times. I am so thankful for Kate!

She has done wonders for me already in the short time we’ve been working together. So happy to finally have some relief in my anxiety.

More about Kathryn

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

My approach is collaborative, holistic, and rooted in care. I am equal parts creative and scientific, and enjoy drawing from a variety of therapeutic resources (Psychodynamic Therapy, EMDR, NMT (Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics), Mindfulness & Movement).

My primary experience is in working with foster and adoptive children and families. I have provided parent coaching and counseling, counseling for children of all ages, family counseling, and group counseling in home and office settings. My focus has been on issues of attachment, fear and anxiety, depression, and the multitude of ways those struggles can manifest.

It takes a lot of courage to ask for help, and I would be honored to partner with you as you seek relief.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
