Katy is a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate (LPCA) with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Her passion lies in helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety, trauma, life transitions, grief, ADHD, and LGBTQ+ concerns. Katy takes a compassionate and collaborative approach, creating a safe and affirming space where clients can explore their experiences, connect with their values, and work toward meaningful personal growth.

Katy’s therapeutic style is integrative, drawing from evidence-based practices such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing. She also incorporate insights and tools from a variety of other therapeutic frameworks, tailoring her approach to meet each client's unique needs. She believes that healing is not a linear process and that everyone moves through their journey at their own pace. Her role is to support, guide, and empower her clients as they work toward the changes they want to see in their lives.

Katy was drawn to this field because of her deep curiosity about the human experience and her commitment to helping others in a meaningful way. She finds immense fulfillment in witnessing her clients' growth—whether they are making sense of past experiences, building new coping skills, or rediscovering their sense of self. She sees it as a privilege to walk alongside clients as they navigate both the challenges and victories of their healing journey.

In addition to her work as a therapist, she values being part of a team that understands the lasting impact of trauma and prioritizes continued education and compassionate care. Katy believes that creating a space of safety and trust is essential for true healing, and she strives to foster an environment where clients feel seen, heard, and supported.

Outside of her professional life, Katy enjoys creative and hands-on projects such as DIY home improvements and photography. She also has a deep appreciation for literature and is constantly adding to her ever-growing list of books to read.
