A FEW WORDS FROM KATELYN:
As a leader and clinician, I approach each client with a collaborative and strengths-based mindset to ensure that their needs are prioritized throughout the change process. Drawing from a range of evidence-based practices, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing, I help clients navigate complex emotions, build resilience, and achieve their personal and professional goals. My work is deeply rooted in trauma-informed care, focusing on creating a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their challenges and strengths. I integrate coaching and mindfulness practices as well as reflective exercises to foster self-awareness and empower clients in their journey toward growth and well-being. Sessions are tailored to each individual, honoring their unique experiences and leveraging their intrinsic strengths for sustainable change.

​OTHER INTERESTS:
Outside of my professional work, I enjoy staying active through exercise and hiking, as well as unwinding with a good book or spending meaningful time at church and with my family. I love to travel and appreciate days spent relaxing at the beach or by a pool, watching an engaging movie, or practicing meditation. I am passionate about lifelong learning and actively seek opportunities to explore new topics and broaden my knowledge. I also find great fulfillment in consulting, where I can add value to organizations and systems dedicated to enhancing the well-being of their staff and the individuals they serve. I look forward to connecting with you soon!
