Getting to know Katherine Deal

Hi there, I'm Katherine! I'm honored to be considered to become a part of this therapy journey with you. I work with clients in a very tailored approach to each unique individual's circumstance, background, and personality. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach, and my style is one of learning about you as much as possible to best be able to guide, assist, and advise on ways of approach and improvement. My approach Whether you're struggling with consequences stemming from past trauma, chronic mental illness, grief/loss, hopelessness, anger, resentment, or profound life changes, healing is possible. Therapy is the process of building insight and awareness into behaviors and thoughts that ultimately perpetuate the hurt and pain. My goal is to assist you in finding the best way to break this pattern, change old and ineffective ways of coping, and build a better understanding of why we do what we do. We often are trying to make right or whole something that was so broken, destroyed, or distorted from our past. My focus Let's get down to the root of the issue. My goal is progress, growth, and betterment. I will be as direct as possible, as my goal ultimately is to provide you with the tools and insight needed to continue successfully without my help. If you're ready to do the work that is hard and often painful at times, I'm ready to come right alongside you. My communication style I'm direct but kind. I'm not interested in telling you what you want to hear, but rather what needs to be said. I am the objective outsider with no other vested interest other than seeing you improve in whatever area is being negatively impacted. We cannot see ourselves the way an outsider can. Family and friends play a pivotal role in our lives, but most often are not equipped or objective enough to see things as they are.
