What should a new client know about working with you?
Hi, my name is Kate Savage, and I am licensed in Idaho and Washington. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Idaho. In Washington, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Mental Health Professional, and Child Mental Health Specialist. I have worked as a therapist since 2016. I began my work with kids, ranging in ages 3-18 before moving into private practice in 2020. Currently, I specialize in working with women, ages 18-55, struggling with various issues including, anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, relational issues, core wounds, attachment, self-esteem, balancing being a wife and mom, and more.
I am trained in several modalities, but primarily utilize Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Experiencing (SE), polyvagal theory, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when working with clients. I do not believe that one therapeutic approach is for everyone. Therefore, I tailor my approach to be specific to what my client needs. As your therapist, I combine my professional training and personal experiences to help you overcome the difficulties that you are facing. I work carefully to get to the root of the issue and walk alongside you to implement the skills needed to overcome your triggers. My hope is that you will gain confidence through your therapeutic work with me—confidence in knowing that you can continue to work through life’s challenges even after our work together is complete.
It takes courage to come to therapy and allow someone into the deepest, darkest parts of your life. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental therapeutic space where you feel able to share your concerns and what's been bothering you. I am deeply honored to do this type of work and help other women face similar struggles that I've had myself.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
- Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
