Clinical SOcial worker/Therapist
Hi,
I’m Katharine. I help queer and chronically ill people gain confidence to live as their authentic selves. You can learn more about me and my approach here.
Feel
So often I hear people say “I don’t feel connected to my body or my emotions.” This makes so much sense! Disconnecting can be a way to survive.
I want to help you explore multiple ways of embodiment, and show you loving ways to connect with yourself.
Understand
Wouldn’t it be nice to feel like you understand yourself?
That might include looking at how you carry a painful past, figuring out how to navigate systems that may not be set up to serve you, and seeing what you need to feel supported.
Build
I see healing as accepting who you are, living in alignment with your values and engaging with others as your authentic self.
Maybe your life is not what you hoped it would be—let’s see what we can build together.
Is this you?
Do you find it hard to be yourself with the people you love the most?
Do you feel like you’re a burden on those around you?
Is it scary for you to get the medical care you need?
Do you think you might be trans, or are experiencing gender dysphoria?
Are you starting to transition and would like the support of a gender-affirming therapist?
Are you neurodivergent and worry you’re not seen as a full, complex person?
Are you an activist or helper who needs support to fill your own cup?
