Hi, I'm Katie...

I work with caregivers to collaborate on the healing process for children with a focus on transitioning therapeutic support back to families. I believe counselors facilitate healing by walking alongside the struggles of others, allowing safe exploration of hurts in a way that discovers acts of love, uncovers hope, and reveals a greater transformational goal that encourages lasting change. It is an honor to share this relational space with children as they internalize a new sense of self and begin to make shifts towards increased joy and well-being. My leisure time is spent outdoors, traveling, reading, volunteering, enjoying family, and centering my life around a faithful relationship with God.
