Kati Niekerk

Hi there, I'm Kati!

I work with adolescents and adults, and especially enjoy working with the LGBTQIA+ and Neurodivergent (ADHD & Autism) populations. I have an eclectic therapy style, using aspects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed therapy, play therapy, and mindfulness-based therapies in my practice.

My focus

I work with adolescents and adults. I enjoy working with women and helping them find empowerment, and with adolescents and young adults as they discover their identities and navigate their transition into adulthood. I treat anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, psychotic disorders, and personality disorders.

My approach

I view therapy as a collaborative effort. My aim is to help clients identify their values and goals, then create a plan to achieve them. I use CBT and mindfulness to help clients better understand themselves and their environments, and DBT to build skills needed to live as their best selves.
