INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

Healing is not about ‘figuring it out.’ It’s about allowing yourself to feel.

My primary role as your therapist is to show you how to feel your feelings rather than avoiding them.

As a child, you received implicit or explicit messages that your feelings were too much. You stuffed them down in order to try to be loved. And stuffing those feelings down is the cause of your anxiety, your depression, your stuckness, your people-pleasing.

Using somatic methods,

I’ll show you how to get back in touch with your emotions. Learning how to feel your feelings authentically is the key to relieving your anxiety and developing a stronger sense of self.

How does somatic therapy work?

Somatic therapy teaches you how to feel your feelings (rather than ruminating about them), and how to release emotions that have been stuck in your body.

You can’t solve a problem if you aren’t even aware it exists. Somatic therapy illuminates the unconscious fears and beliefs your body has been carrying.

By engaging the body, somatic therapy helps you break out of a perpetual fight-flight-freeze response, which we so often have after trauma.

Treatment with me will be once a week, and we will collaborate on the goals you set and work on each week. I encourage my clients to take the lead, as this is your journey, but I am hear to offer my wisdom and be a guide along the path to you achieving your goals.

Testimonials

  • “Since I started working with Katherine, I've noticed actual changes in my behavior and thinking patterns that feel stable and sustainable. I feel like I have an increased ability to handle my grief and my anxiety and like I've actually made progress after feeling stagnant for so long. I feel more confident in who I am and like myself for the first time in years, which has made me so much happier. Working with Katherine has actually changed my life for the better and I can't recommend working with her enough. The type of therapy she practices has worked for me where other types haven't, and if anyone struggles with intellectualizing their feelings, working with Katherine can really help.” -S.G.

  • “I wasn’t entirely sure what I needed when I started seeing Katherine—I just knew that I had hit a wall in naming and rationalizing the same anxieties without understanding where they came from. I felt always on edge, rushing, and I was driven by paralysis and fear I couldn’t really identify that was damaging my relationship. Katherine excels at pacing—she balanced exploring my history, building the somatic toolset to be able to get in touch with more of my emotions, and developing the trust in our relationship to bring them all together in this work. Since working with Katherine, I’ve gained a greater understanding of my emotional reactions and developed more self-compassion. Along the way, I’ve found a stronger sense of identity.” -Alisha

  • “Katherine has helped me see all parts of myself and sat with me in sessions while I explored heavy topics such as grief, and pain. She has a calming presence and pays close attention to how her client responds to meditation and breath work. She is an exceptional trauma therapist. I would highly recommend her services.” -A.N.

  • "Slowing down can be hard for me, but Katherine creates a safe space where I can breathe, listen to my body, and speak without fear of judgment. She always asks thoughtful questions that guide the session and make me feel heard. I didn’t realize how much grief, trauma, and self-doubt I was holding onto before working with Katherine. With her help, I’ve learned to be kinder to myself.” - YB

  • "I’d been in therapy for many years before meeting Katherine and I hadn’t seen much development. But in the two years since starting my work with Katherine, everything has changed. I have become more grounded in my body and centered in my intuition than I had ever imagined possible for myself. For years, I’d intellectually known that I should 'love myself' but didn’t understand how to actually do that. Session by session, Katherine helped me rebuild a genuine, loving relationship with my internal system by teaching me how to offer attention to my younger parts. My first instinct with myself now is to slow down, take a deep breath, and offer myself patience. I actually know what self-love feels like now." ~CB
