when everything starts to unravel…
rebuild on your own terms
and grow into a life that feels unapologetically yours
Hi! I’m Katie, a licensed therapist based in Kingston, NY.
I help thoughtful, capable women at major turning points get clear about what they actually want and move forward with confidence.
You didn’t get here because you’re weak.
You got here because you’ve been strong for a very long time.
You’re someone who’s made thoughtful choices, held it together (likely for everyone in your orbit), and have always tried to do the next best thing.
And now you’re overthinking everything, snapping at people you love, fantasizing about running away and feel deeply unsatisfied. Or maybe you are being forced to start over after an unexpected upheaval.
By now, you’ve tried everything- to keep powering through and convincing yourself it’s fine.
But it’s not fine… And pretending is getting really fucking exhausting.
Turning points don’t show up because you failed.
They show up because something deeper is ready to shift.
This is a place to rebuild your foundation and grow into the life you truly want.
For years, I’ve worked with insightful and accomplished (and usually highly anxious) women navigating turning points that can’t be solved with productivity hacks or positive thinking.
Rebuilding isn’t theoretical for me.
After a major fire upended my own life, I had to choose — intentionally — what came next.
That experience deepened my belief in and appreciation for post-traumatic growth. Not silver linings or forced optimism but the quietly powerful (and very uncomfortable) process of rebuilding. The opportunity for a clean slate and a time to ask yourself how you actually want your life to look in “the after”.
specialties:
-
You’ve mostly got your shit together. But inside… you’re exhausted, running on autopilot, and so damn anxious all the time..
We work at the root of anxiety — not just calming it, but understanding what it’s protecting so you can move forward without abandoning yourself.
This includes anxiety tied to uncertainty, big decisions, and the state of the world.
-
You’ve chosen not to have children and feel mostly* good about your decision.
But you’re tired of defending it to others and the mental space it occupies.
You deserve a therapist who isn’t going to assume your anxiety stems from your unfulfilled need to mother [barf], and who will fully support all parts of you.
We separate your values from cultural pressure so you can build a full, intentional life — not one shaped by expectation.
*I say “mostly” because it can get tricky, and all feelings are welcome here.
-
For some clients, thinking moves more freely outside.
I offer in-person Walk & Talk sessions in the Hudson Valley.
The same deep work, but in motion- taking full advantage of nature’s calming effects on your nervous system.
-
We don’t just talk about patterns. We work with them — where they actually live.
This is where real change and deep healing happens.
I’m Level One trained in EMDR and IFS.
get started:
-
Reach out through my contact form to set up a free phone or video consult. This gives us a chance to connect, talk about what’s bringing you in, and see if we’re a good fit.
Also, feel free to skip the contact form & schedule a time directly here.
-
You don’t need to commit on the spot. You’ll know pretty quickly whether the vibe fits. Therapy works best when it feels aligned.
-
We’ll meet weekly to start (and then sometimes switch to bi-weekly) and start untangling what’s not working — and building what comes next.
That’s it.
