Getting to know Kathlyn Wolgast

I understand that starting therapy can feel overwhelming or even intimidating, but my goal is to create a safe environment that fosters a sense of support and ease. I specialize in working with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy, tailoring each session to your unique needs and goals- so you can move forward with clarity and confidence. My approach I use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help you identify and reframe thought patterns and to develop effective coping skills. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your unique needs, I may adapt my approach to include practices like mindfulness and meditation. Your goals and progress are my primary focus. My focus I work with adults and young adults who are managing life stressors, depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and those seeking support for building confidence in themselves. Whether you’re working through a break-up, trauma, building coping skills, or exploring your personal goals, I’ll work with you to create a plan for growth and healing that feels achievable at your own pace. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and reflection. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and patient. I'm always open to feedback and working through things as they come up. My journey to mental healthcare My therapy journey began with a love for psychology and human behavior. I've always had a desire to help others, and I realized that therapy came naturally as I found myself holding space for others and helping them process some of life’s most difficult challenges. I believe that everyone, if given the opportunity, can benefit from therapy.
