Therapy is a collaborative process. Individuals work with a trained professional to explore, understand, and respond to personal challenges, emotional difficulties, and/or mental health concerns in ways that feel meaningful to them. Through open conversation, clients can gain insight, foster personal growth, and build a trusted connection and skills to support themselves for the future.
Therapy can benefit anyone seeking to improve their connection to personal wellbeing and build healthier relationships. It can be beneficial during times of stress, anxiety, depression, or change and can be highly valuable to build new coping and self-support skills or recover from trauma and illness.
Every therapist will bring their own unique set of skills, experience and interest to the relationship. Kate provides individual counselling sessions for clients 12 years of age and over. Sessions are offered in the privacy and comfort of a unique home office. A self-contained cabin in the park-like setting of her home’s yard. Community visits, walk and talk, and virtual contact are also options for those who require or prefer alternate settings.
Kate works from a psychodynamic approach, driven by a holistic belief system that emphasizes individual strengths, intuition, and insight. She draws from cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy, narrative, and family systems theory, as well as her training in somatic and mindfulness practices. The tone is strongly relational, with an emphasis on compassion and curiosity.
People of all backgrounds, beliefs and ways of being are welcome. Kate has a particular interest in providing support to frontline workers in areas of health, mental health, and education, as well as those seeking support with their experience of ADHD or attention-related challenges.
