Kat integrates psychodynamic, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based therapies, and is trained in Brainspotting, a neurophysiological trauma modality, as well as Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP) for OCD.
She holds a Master’s in Counseling from Northwestern University and has a professional background in education and classical music. Kat works with children and adolescents around emotional, social, and developmental challenges; supports adults through periods of identity exploration, burnout, and personal growth; and helps parents and families strengthen communication and deepen connection.
Her specialties include neurodivergence (including autism, ADHD, and OCD), trauma and intergenerational trauma, identity development, and family conflict, including nuanced work around communication between parents and children or within couples. Her approach often blends the mind-body-soul connection with creative tools, humor, and a strong attunement to the lived realities of neurodivergent individuals.
Kat’s practice is LGBTQIA+ affirming, culturally responsive, and rooted in a relational model that values emotional safety, trust, and collaboration. Clients describe her as thoughtful, intuitive, and consistently present, with a gift for helping others feel truly seen and understood.
