Hi, I'm Kate.

I've been doing this work for 14 years and I'm still genuinely curious about every single person I meet. That hasn't changed.

I believe most people who find their way to therapy aren't broken. They're curious. They sense there's more. Many feel stuck in painful relationship patterns, overwhelming self-criticism, or a quiet sense that something isn't working the way it should.

I believe your mind is always in motion: creating, adapting, and sometimes quietly working against the very thing you want most. Not because something is wrong with you, but because somewhere along the way it made sense to. The patterns you keep repeating, the relationships that feel oddly familiar, they're a story worth reading together.

So that's what we do. We slow down. We listen for what's underneath. And slowly, with intention, we create something that feels like yours, colored with a little more hope than when you started.

I think about my patients between sessions. This work doesn't clock out at the end of the hour. And neither do I.

I'm warm, direct, and I have a terrible poker face. I'm not here to nod along. I'm here to help you figure out what's true.

I offer psychodynamic telehealth therapy for adults in Chicago and throughout Illinois.
