Hi, I'm Kat. Life has a way of throwing curveballs when we least expect them, and I've learned that healing happens best when we meet those moments with both courage and compassion. My work focuses on stress, trauma, grief, depression, anxiety, relationships, and life transitions—because these are the threads that weave through so many of our stories. I work with young adults, seasoned individuals, and couples, bringing eight years of experience as a hospice social worker where I've witnessed the profound beauty and complexity of grief, illness-related stress, and medical trauma. This work has given me deep reverence for life's fragility and an unwavering passion for walking alongside people through their darkest and most transformative moments. My background as a firefighter/EMT, sexual assault hospital advocate, and domestic violence advocate has shaped how I understand trauma and resilience. My years as an advocate have taught me the importance of standing with those whose voices are often silenced or dismissed. I have specialized training in supporting first responders and anyone experiencing mental health stress injuries. I know what it's like to see humanity at its most vulnerable, and I understand that healing isn't linear—it's messy, brave, and deeply personal. I believe fiercely in the power of showing up as your authentic self. In my practice, I come to sessions as my genuine (and sometimes sweary) self because I've learned that healing begins when we stop pretending and start being real. Every person's path to wellness is unique, and there's no "right" way to do this work. Whether you're grappling with fresh grief, old wounds, relationship struggles, or just feeling stuck in life, I'd be honored to walk alongside you exactly where and how you are.
