I'm glad you're here.
I'm Kate. I'm a native Iowan who fell into a social work career over 15 years ago. I'm passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges and build meaningful, fulfilling lives through therapy. People are my jam! I enjoy working with a wide, diverse population of clients especially but not limited to trauma survivors, pregnant and postpartum people, as well as the LGBTQ+ community. I truly enjoy supporting clients as they develop tools to manage emotions, increase resilience, and create lasting change. My approach is both compassionate and practical—I use evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to empower you with real strategies that lead to lasting personal growth.
In addition to these clinical tools, I believe in a holistic, strengths-based perspective that honors your unique experiences, values, and goals. Your feelings deserve space and to be validated. I am direct but compassionate and often utilize humor as a great way to assist clients. I'm honored to walk along side you in your therapeutic journey.
