Rediscover Connection & Meaning

Welcome! My name is Kathleen. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I support young adults and adults navigating stress, burnout, anxiety, life transitions, and emotional challenges.

As a military spouse, new mom, and IVF mom, I particularly support women going through transition and their own IVF and parenting journey.

I provide an empowering space to help clients on their journey to self-discovery, self-awareness, healing and growth. Sessions focus on client needs and goals to help them identify triggers and enhance effective coping skills to help build resilience and overall wellbeing.

My approach to therapy

My aim is to create a collaborative, empathetic space clients feel heard and validated. I draw from ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) with a mix of mindfulness, polyvagal processing, and solution focused therapy that are guided by the client’s goals, strengths, and experiences. I utilize creativity and person-centered approaches to help clients explore their objectives and curate a roadmap that aligns with the change and growth they seek.

What you can expect from me

Every story matters. Clients can expect to curate an environment of trust, openness, and warmth in the first few sessions to feel supported. During the initial sessions we will work collaboratively to outline and define your goals for therapy. (What do you want to change, what progress do you want to see, how do you want to feel throughout/at the end of therapy? etc.).

My hope is that therapy will ultimately become the space my clients find further meaning of themselves, their emotions, perspectives and experiences, and work towards self-empowerment and confidence.
