I’ve been seeing Katherine as my therapist for about 4 months and I couldn’t be more grateful for our sessions. Katherine provides a judgment free, productive environment. Even when I am feeling at my lowest, I always feel I’m able to take away something positive from our sessions. In the moments when I am word vomiting, Katherine is always able to synthesize what I’m saying and present it back to me in a way that I didn’t think about. I always walk away feeling seen and heard. I highly recommend Katherine!

It was clear to me from our first session that Katherine is a deep listener, with a thoughtful and sharp sensibility to sort through a problem to its root without losing sight of its complexity. Initially, I came to see Katherine to learn how to cope with grief and anxiety.
Her feedback consistently helps me re-see an issue with more clarity and a greater sense of my own power to improve the situation.
Katherine's quiet optimism and ability to find new approaches is both productive and comforting. She is kind and caring, has a good sense of humor, and her deep empathy is in balance with her keen insight. I highly recommend Katherine as a therapist. She has helped me improve my life in a foundational way.

Katherine is excellent! Very attentive and empathetic. She is not the typical therapist who just sits there and let you talk to yourself for the whole session. She asks great thought provoking questions, incorporates mindfulness sessions and gives tools to resources to help you along the journey. I have so much clarity after each session. I've learned and grown so much since I've started to work with Katherine.
If you're having a hard time picking a therapist to work with, look no further! Katherine is the real deal!

Katherine has been nothing but helpful and professional. She has helped me to increase awareness and understanding of myself, thoughts and feelings. Through our sessions she has helped me navigate difficult situations, set boundaries and examine tough scenarios more effectively. She has also provided incredible recommendations for external resources. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing mental health services

Katherine is the best therapist I’ve ever had. I began seeing her two years ago for help with depression, body image, and food-related struggles. From our first session, she offered compassion, patience, and genuine care. I never felt judged—only supported and deeply heard.
Katherine asks thoughtful questions that show she truly cares about what I’m going through. Even after a year-long break due to my work schedule, we were able to pick up right where we left off, which speaks volumes about her consistency and care.
She’s provided me with helpful tools and accountability that extend beyond our sessions, and she’s always been responsive and communicative between meetings—something I really value.
Working with Katherine has been a transformative experience. If you’re looking for a therapist who is truly committed, compassionate, and effective, I can’t recommend her highly enough.
