More about Kate

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I am a marriage and family therapist licensed in California with years of experience working to help others. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, and life transitions. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma and emotional abuse.

My counseling style is collaborative and interactive. I believe in providing treatment with dignity, transparency, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing or pathologizing. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, existential, and psychodynamic counseling. I will tailor our interactions to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to take steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. As a therapist, I want to provide you the safe space to be as authentic as you desire with integrity, dignity, and respect for yourself and others.

I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
