Katie Gaskins

Every day I fall in love with my job all over again. I take great pride in identifying myself as a stigma fighting mental health advocate, a self-care enthusiast, and a once patient - now clinician. I come to you with firsthand experience in the everlasting journey of mental health, chronic illness, and neuro-spicy parenthood. This personal insight, accompanied by my professional clinical training, allows me to connect with clients authentically, compassionately, and empathetically.

To curate a personalized mixed tape of interventions, I integrate techniques across multiple modalities, such as DBT, Schema Therapy, and Internal Family Systems. I emphasize collaboration customized to the needs of the moment & grounded in progress toward therapeutic goals. I make the effort to not only meet clients where they are, but I want to validate their journey. I believe you can’t see how far you’ve come if you don’t acknowledge where you started.

It’s important to me that you sense a connection where you feel compatibility & the capacity to build trust with me. Therapy can be a useful tool for any of us, but what it means & how it works is unique to each of us. This is because you are unique, with a story unlike anyone I’ve met before. At the end of our sessions together, I want you to walk away feeling supported, validated, and understood, and I want you to know that your existence matters.
