Getting to know Katelyn Shields

I love being a therapist and helping many people navigate a variety of life’s challenges. I hold a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from National University and am currently working toward a certification in Sex Therapy. I want to specialize my training to work with LGBQAIP, Trans/GNC/Non-binary/2 Spirit communities. I work with individuals and am kinky/BDSM/poly friendly. As I personally identify with many of the above-mentioned identities, I can provide therapy and expertise from a lived experience.

What should a new client know about working with you?

You are the expert on your life… you have been living it. I am here to bring my knowledge of psychotherapy/education, along with my warmth and client centered approach, as we walk through whatever you need to walk through, to get to a place that feels better.

In-network insurances

Katelyn Shields, LMFT has 200+ in-network plans.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
