Hello! I'm Katherine McDonald, a licensed Mental Health Counselor with a passion for human connection. My clients describe me as warm, compassionate, real and down-to-earth. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, PTSD, and grief. With extensive experience in trauma work, I can help you heal from painful events, finding hope and renewed energy for life. In addition to working individually with teens and adults, I also practice couples therapy.
As a client-centered therapist, I will strive to understand your unique story and tailor my approach to your individual needs. Together we will explore what feels meaningful and authentic to you as well as what no longer serves you, identify and heal from life events that have led to patterns that are holding you back, and develop new ways of thinking and being that will help you thrive.
Although it can feel otherwise, you are not your anxiety or depression. Through our sessions, you will discover a greater sense of your authentic self apart from your challenges. You will gain insight into the the root cause of issues while also learning tools to manage and improve your symptoms in the present. Together we will build upon your strengths and empower you to thrive well beyond your time in therapy.
