Meet Your Therapist

I’m so glad you are here!

My name is Katie, and I’m a therapist that treats anxiety through a trauma-informed lens. Some of my passions include working with highly sensitive women who have high anxiety or burnout, perfectionists who are tired of putting so much pressure on themselves, and women struggling with symptoms such as panic attacks, nervous system dysregulation, health anxiety, emetophobia or other body-based fears, and trauma-related anxiety symptoms.

I have always found it feels a little safer to open up to someone new when I know a little bit about them, so if you are curious to learn more about me, I am happy to share!

Professionally,

  • I hold a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and am a fully
    licensed LLP within the state of Michigan.

  • I am a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200)

  • I am a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional

  • I hold a certificate from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition for Holistic
    Health Coaching

  • I have extensive training and experience working with mind-body disorders (disorders that affect our body and our mind) such as chronic illness, OCD, Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, Anxiety Disorders, Health Anxiety, Trauma-Related Anxiety & nervous system dysregulation, emetophobia, eating disorders, and other body-based or somatic phobias or symptoms.

  • I have worked in many levels of care including Partial Hospitalization, Intensive Outpatient, and outpatient settings primarily treating acute mental health concerns such as eating disorders, OCD, anxiety, and PTSD.

Personally,

  • I have lived with a chronic illness for all of my adult life, so I understand some of the emotions and hurdles you may be navigating

  • I have a wonderful, sassy, troublemaking little dachshund named
    Henry, who will definitely join sessions from time to time to say hello!

  • Movement is my favorite part of the day - I love walking in nature, boxing and MMA, yoga and pilates, and weightlifting

  • I love a sunny fall day, reading, painting, embroidery, punch needling, writing, baking, animals of all kinds, and being with family and friends who lift my spirits
