It is my goal to empower individuals to recognize and embrace the strengths that live within them. I utilize evidence-based techniques to aid individuals with living a life filled with healthy relationships, self-confidence, and joy. I provide clients with strategies to combat life stressors, anxiety and depression.
Early in my career, I had the opportunity to work in community-based settings where I learned the skills to help clients overcome fixed mindsets and develop healthy behaviors to succeed both emotionally and socially.
Later in my career, I led new mom’s support groups to help mothers navigate this unique time of life in a supportive and non-judgmental community. I currently specialize in working with maternal mental health where I aid mothers in exploring many topics including a mother’s new normal, changing relationships with her partner, the baby blues as well as postpartum depression/ anxiety/ OCD, adjusting to returning to work, introducing a new sibling to the family, navigating new dynamics with older children and much more.
As a psychotherapist, I have had the privilege to work with individuals who are brave enough to openly discuss difficult life transitions and learn the tools to deal with them. It is truly inspiring to witness the tenacity of individuals who take the time to be the best they can be.
I believe my intuition and good listening skills as well as authentic ability to hold a non-judgmental space for clients are where my strengths lie. It is in this environment that clients have the chance to tell their story and learn how to realize their healthiest self. Once people are given the opportunity to express themselves with a caring and supportive therapist, change can lead to revelations that can lead to renewal.
*Please note I am only able to treat patients located in NY state.
As a Board Certified PMHNP, I use medication management to treat mental health disorders in a supportive and compassionate environment. I work with individuals to identify safe and appropriate strategies that align with their preferences and goals of treatment. After working with many different populations, I have adopted a comprehensive, patient focused, and evidence-based treatment approach rooted in interdisciplinary care.
If you are struggling with anxiety or dealing with a major change in your life, I can help. You have choices when it comes to your career, relationships, and family. I will speak with you openly about your feelings and help you to gain new perspectives and solutions. I work closely with men and women facing many situations, including how to deal with a complicated relationship, family and work problems, or the loss of loved ones. My approach to healing combines traditional therapies with holistic approaches, while drawing on the individual’s spiritual practices and developing new coping strategies Now accepting new clients in New York and Texas!

My name is Kate. I am a psychotherapist with over 18 years experience in the field. My practice is LGBTQI+ focused, though clients of all identities work with me. Clients come to me to reduce distress and bring ease into their lives. I practice affirmative therapy that is trauma-informed, nonjudgmental, and direct. I view therapy as a collaborative journey towards self-discovery, healing, and symptom relief.
A melding of Western and Eastern psychologies that is client-centered and non-judgmental
What can clients expect from their first session with you?Active listening to determine whether we are a "good fit"
In learning about one’s personal strengths I utilize that information to assist in the healing process exploring what you would like to see different in your life and explore options in our journey together. I assist individuals to find new ways to cope, function and learn to let go of behaviors that are no longer serving their best interests.
