Hello, I’m Katie

I know what it’s like to live and work in a way that is stressful and feels bad.

I get how hard it can be to break free from patterns and cycles that no longer serve you.

I’ve been there.

My focus and passion for fostering wellbeing, mindfulness, and compassion are not only based on my professional education but are also rooted in my own lived experience.

“We are more than the parts that form us.”

My decision to pursue a life path in counseling and wellness was inspired by a mentor who helped me work through my own limiting thoughts and cycles.

It was during my education my teachers and friends taught me that a fulfilling life involves community, creativity, and growth. It was with their support that I developed my own mindfulness practice which allowed me to grow into who I am today.

Throughout my journey I learned that personal growth is professional growth, and who I am as a person matters as much as what I know as a therapist.

“Every success story is a tale of constant adaption, revision and change.”

I believe that we are more than what we do and more than our job titles. I am grateful for the mentors, friends, family and clients that I have had the privilege to know throughout my life.

My decision to move to Seattle and later Vermont was made for my self-care and wellbeing. Balance, joy, community and time outdoors became my priority.

In my free time I can be found in nature, playing board and video games with friends and family, traveling or reading.
