My Story
“But there was no need to be ashamed of tears, for tears bore witness that a man had the greatest of courage, the courage to suffer.” -Viktor Frankl
We all go through life and experience unexpected circumstances. Nobody is prepared for everything that comes our way. As a counselor, my hope is to walk alongside you through your journey of healing with empathy, compassion, and awareness. Walking through hard times and facing what’s in front of you is brave, and I hope to be there as a counselor and fellow human being to provide a safe place to help you get to the other side of the suffering you are experiencing.
Katie is especially passionate about working with individuals who have experienced grief and trauma, as well as anxiety, depression, identity issues, stress-related issues, and other mental health concerns. Much of her knowledge and understanding has come through her own personal life experiences and hardships.
When not wearing a counselor’s hat, Katie’s greatest joy is in spending time with her high school sweetheart and husband of 20 years, Alex, and their 4 children; 2 girls ages 14 and 18, and 2 boys ages 4 and 11. In her spare time Katie enjoys reading, being outdoors, cooking with her husband, listening to music, and writing. She also enjoys spending time with her pets; 2 gentle but giant dogs, Holly and Meadow, and 2 snuggly kitties named Willow and Bella.
