I enjoyed working with Kate and I found her to be helpful. HOWEVER, Kate has a very unprofessional Office Manager that actually totally screwed me over. It turned out they were having a hard time with my insurance (after I switched carriers) and did not notice this until 4 MONTHS later. They charged me for every single appointment, without actually looking into my insurance plan. It was so expensive that I had to discontinue therapy moving FORWARD for a while in order to recover. To add insult to injury, they asked me OVER A MONTH later to pay for the final session, the total for which they had not included. Ridiculous. Sorry Kate but, this is serious nonsense.

First time in therapy, second appointment with Kate and both were excellent experiences! Kate went above and beyond from beginning to end, contacted me before my appointment and answered all of my questions. She is incredibly warm and welcoming, patient and knowledgeable, actively listened and provided insightful feedback. I left feeling hopeful, empowered, motivated and more confident to work on myself than I have in years. Amazing, highly recommend and excited for our next session!
Verified patient
Have had a lot of so-so therapists and I really like Kate's proactive style and approach which was really different than what I'm used to. She attentively listened, got to know me and gave me some new insights into managing my issues. She had a conversation with me and didn't talk at me or make me feel like I'm defective. Don't usually feel like I can open up but Kate is very easy going and made me instantly feel comfortable. 5 stars, highly recommended and excited for my next appointment!!
Verified patient
I really enjoyed meeting with Kate, she was really warm, friendly and attentive and I felt very comfortable. She was none-judgemental and provided me with a lot of different techniques and insight to help me manage my anxiety and depression. I really feel like she saw me as a person and appreciated that she didn't make assumptions about me or try to tell me what I should do. I very much look forward to continuing to work with her and would highly recommend her!
Verified patient
After one appointment with Kate I already feel totally comfortable with her and confident going forward with sessions. Therapy can be really intimidating at first, but I'm already excited about the work we will do together. The office is clean and comfortable. I cannot recommend Kate highly enough.
Verified patient
I truly enjoy working with Kate as she is very personable, non judgmental, empathetic and partners with me to explore extremely painful personable issues. I felt an immediate connection and trust with her and appreciate that she thoughtfully works with me to explore my feelings and develop better coping skills to manage my life. She is proactive and an amazing therapist to work with and I would recommend her without reservations to anyone.
Kate is an excellent therapist. She really connected with me and helped me recognize some important things in my life, and I am grateful for help. She is intuitive, warm and empathic, and has great clinical insights. I would highly recommend her.
It is so hard to find a great therapist like Kate! I love her office and her clinical style. She is so caring and supportive. You feel like you are in good hands. She really helped me get through a really difficult time in my life. Going to see Kate allowed me to not only survived my struggle but THRIVED. I came out of that dark time a better person than when I came in. The extra bonus is: I'M happy!! No pills needed. Just a weekly dose of Kate will get you to be the person you aspire to be. Isn't that we all want from therapy? I recommend her!
I was completely put at ease the minute I met Kate. She was comforting, knowledgeable, and patient me as I tried to figure out my life. She’s one of those people you can’t wait to see week after week. I only wish I had found her sooner. So many therapists before her made me feel inadequate and foolish for needing help. Kate made it all better, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my well-being
My visit with Kate was great. She made me ffeel very comfortable; and she was an active listener as well. Kate let me express my inner feelings in manner that help me process my purpose in life. She encourages me to believe in myself; and do self-care for myself finally, she is very supportive, and she made a positive impact on me.
I can't recommend Ms. Kate Engstrom, LCSW enough. I suffer from depression and anxiety for over thirty years, needless to say I've seen my share of therapists over the years. Ms. Engstrom immediately made me feel comfortable with her every going approach. She listened to me intently and I was able to emote. I find her to be highly intelligent, compassionate and very sensitive. Already she's been able to give me insight. She really cares and is deeply concerned about my problems. The real deal
I really appreciate working with Kate. She is caring, trustworthy, conscientious and non judgmental. She creates a space where: feel comfortable talking about my challenging problems. Kate provides me with a lot of various techniques that help me feel more confident in my communication skills, self esteem and my ability to identify my need and advocate for myself. I have made tremendous progress working with Kate and I highly recommend her as she is an amazing therapist!
