“I finally found a psychiatric specialist who could help me. Kate truly listened and explained everything in a way that made sense. I had awful sleep combined with depression and anxiety. Nothing really made a difference with the other doctors. She changed my medications in a thoughtful manner. After a short time, my sleep and energy had improved, and I was not waking up feeling depressed. I am capable of navigating my stressful days now. She really put me on the right path. Thankful is an understatement. ”

“I was in a bad place for a couple years with crippling anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. My regular meetings with Kate and the medication changes we made during that time were one of the only things that helped me to move forward in pursuit of my goals. Now that my life challenges have improved and I secured the career of my dreams, I have been able to decrease my medications and I only need to see her occasionally. I am very thankful for the expertise, support, and care she has given me over the years. Her help played a significant role in the reason I was able to make progress and reach new heights. ”

I finally found a psychiatric specialist who could help me. Kate truly listened and explained everything in a way that made sense. I had awful sleep combined with depression and anxiety. Nothing really made a difference with the other doctors. She changed my medications in a thoughtful manner. After a short time, my sleep and energy had improved, and I was not waking up feeling depressed. I am capable of navigating my stressful days now. She really put me on the right path. Thankful is an understatement.
I was in a bad place for a couple years with crippling anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. My regular meetings with Kate and the medication changes we made during that time were one of the only things that helped me to move forward in pursuit of my goals. Now that my life challenges have improved and I secured the career of my dreams, I have been able to decrease my medications and I only need to see her occasionally. I am very thankful for the expertise, support, and care she has given me over the years. Her help played a significant role in the reason I was able to make progress and reach new heights.
I first saw Dr. Graen because I was concerned about the mood symptoms I was battling for several years. Before my first appointment I was trying to keep what I was going through hidden from everyone. I didn't even want to talk to my family because of the shame and fear. I was trying to use supplements and other coping mechanisms, which did not help. When I opened up to her about my symptoms, I felt so relieved to finally be getting professional psychiatric help. In an honest and compassionate manner, she diagnosed me and explained the details of my diagnosis and treatment. She let me know that treatment plans are individualized and that it would take some time to find the most effective treatment for me, but I am so thankful that I trusted her expertise and judgment on my journey toward improved mental health. I now feel capable of pursuing my goals and talents and I am accomplishing more in school than I could in the past. I highly recommend her if you are in need of psychiatric help.
The psychiatric treatment I have received from Kate has truly transformed my life. I used to be an anxious wreck and my anxiety was taking over my entire day to the point of interfering with my research responsibilities. Over the years of working with Kate, she has helped me to find the perfect combination of medications that do not cause me any side effects. I feel so much calmer and I am productive throughout the day. My sleep has also improved immensely, which has made a major impact on my quality of life. She is very thorough and on top of my overall medical care. I highly recommend her.
Kate has helped me to become more functional and engaged in my overall life. My medication regimen finally has me feeling regulated and productive when nothing else I've tried in the past has worked for me. She is also kind, pleasant, thorough, and reliable. I truly appreciate that the office responds to my emails quickly. They are so efficient.
Kate has been an incredible resource, and I am very thankful for the work she does. She is very knowledgeable and helpful with any issues that I’ve had with meds, and my quality of life has gone up immensely since I’ve been working with her. I’ve had providers in the past that dismissed my concerns or were impossible to reach, but Kate is so reliable and kind.
I’ve worked with other providers in the past and I have to say that Kate has been one of the best that I’ve worked with and I look forward to our continued work together! She’s very compassionate and very knowledgeable, she is also extremely professional, and you can tell she really cares about her patients. She understands me and the issues that I have, and she never judges. I feel very safe and in the space with her and I have already seen a lot of improvement since our initial appointment a few weeks ago. I thought I’d never be able to find someone that understands me and I am so glad that I finally did.
I struggled with undiagnosed ADHD and depression since early adulthood and it really began to affect my day to day life during COVID. My primary care physician suggested that I reach out to a mental health care provider and Kate came highly recommended. With Kate’s help, I’m feeling myself again and able to navigate life’s daily stresses and distractions without breaking down, disassociating, and checking out. Im comfortable talking to Kate, she is a great communicator and takes the time to listen learn how to best help you. I appreciate Kate’s reliability and her thoughtful approach to dealing with mental health issues. I feel in very much in good hands :) Thank you Kate for everything you do!
She is very insightful and efficient. I felt comfortable opening up about my mental health struggles. I also felt that she offered and explained each of the treatment options in a way where I could make an informed decision. I am thankful for her guidance and help.
Dr. Graen has been very helpful in helping me get the prescriptions that I needed filled. It was a difficult process but she put in the extra effort to help me find pharmacies that would be more likely to have it in stock, and that made all the difference for me.
The most important choices in your life include your health. I can honestly say that I am so grateful to be under Kate Graen’s care. She is immensely talented and knowledgeable in her field. She is able to put you at ease and make you feel comfortable from the very beginning, which goes a long way towards building that essential trust you want towards your PA. She is also an exceptional listener and really helped me get to the bottom of my issues and what medications would work best.She won’t prescribe you anything that she doesn’t trust, or that she wouldn’t take herself in the same situation.Her impeccable professionalism and expertise give me nothing but confidence in her ability.However, it is her friendly demeanor, compassion, and kindness that I find most comforting.It definitely feels like she goes the extra mile for her patients.And you just don’t see that as much in the healthcare industry these days.So please give her an opportunity to take care of your own needs.Thanks Kate!
Dr Graen had been my practitioner for a few years now and has been incredibly helpful with me through a variety of tough conditions. Highly recommended.
She is very understanding and very responsive!
I have been seeing Kate for over a year and a half – when I first came to her, I wasn’t sleeping, I was depressed and basically couldn’t function. We have worked together in the past year and a half and I am feeling so, so much better. Kate is kind, listens to every single thing I say, and has figured out the perfect combination of medication for me. She is amazing and I recommend her highly, she has changed the quality of my life!
