Hi there, I'm Katy!

Maybe you’ve been in therapy in the past, but the changes you were looking for never really happened. You haven’t been able to think your way out of your past traumatic experiences, and now life seems to be adding new problems to the old ones. I’m Katy (she/her), an LMFT and a somatic therapist working in mental health for more than a decade. Somatic Experiencing therapy is a gentle method of working with and resolving chronic stress and trauma that may have resulted in problems with relationships, anxiety, depression, and problematic substance use. During therapy, we pay attention to thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations that arise, work to resolve the distress that comes up and increase overall resiliency. My hope is that you will develop more balance in your life and increase your resiliency to stress and your capacity to participate actively in your life. I work with people experiencing PTSD, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, grief and loss, perimenopause/menopause, aging, and other life transitions.
