about me
Hi, I’m Katelyn—an Associate Clinical Social Worker, mom, and someone whose brain doesn’t always follow the script.
As a kid, I was diagnosed with ADHD but felt like I was just given a label without the support and understanding I needed. For years, I didn’t understand why things felt so much harder for me than for others, I just thought I was broken.
It wasn’t until I got connected to my experience, truly understood my brain, and received the right support that my life began to change.
Now, I’m passionate about helping parents and individuals navigate life with a brain that doesn’t always fit society’s expectations.
With a bachelor degrees in Nutrition and Psychology, as well a Master’s in Social Work, I combine my education with lived experience to support individuals and couples in deepening their relationships and connecting with their authentic selves in honest, empowering ways.
I believe relationships are powerful spaces for growth, healing, and joy—and I strive to create those spaces for the people I work with, honoring their journey every step of the way.
my values
Authenticity
Healing starts with being real. Therapy is a space to be yourself, without pressure to conform. Here, you can express freely and be accepted without judgment.
Integrity & Honesty
I show up with transparency and respect. You can trust me to be honest and clear, and I encourage you to do the same, knowing you’ll be met with compassion.
Openness & Curiosity
I stay open to your experiences and approach our work with curiosity. Together, we’ll explore your world without fear of judgment, finding new insights along the way.
Connection & Relationship
Healing happens through connection. I focus on helping you build deeper, more meaningful relationships where you feel seen, understood, and supported.
Self-Trust & Agency
I help you reconnect with your inner wisdom and trust yourself. You deserve to move through life with confidence, knowing your choices matter.
Neurodivergent-Affirming Care
I believe in honoring your unique way of being. Differences in thinking and feeling are not disorders to be fixed, but natural variations in human experience.
Resistance & Liberation
Therapy is a space to challenge oppressive systems. I support you in rejecting harmful narratives and reclaiming your right to exist on your own terms.
my mission
My mission is to provide a space where people can show up as they are—without the pressure to perform, conform, or be “fixed.”
I believe that struggle is not a sign of failure or disorder but a natural response to a world that often demands too much and understands too little.
My approach is neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, and rooted in deep respect for each person’s unique way of moving through the world.
Whether you’re navigating relationships, parenthood, identity, or the weight of simply existing, you don’t have to do it alone.
neurodivergent-affirming philosophy
Everyone is neurodiverse— meaning each of us has a unique way of functioning that shapes how we think, feel, and experience the world.
Neurodivergent-affirming care starts with the belief that neurodivergent individuals are not broken or disordered, but are navigating a world that wasn't designed to support the full range of human diversity.
Instead of viewing differences in brain functioning as something to be "fixed," this approach embraces neurodivergence as a natural and valuable part of the human experience.
The challenges that many neurodivergent people face are not inherent flaws, but a response to living in a society that often fails to accommodate diverse ways of being.
This philosophy shifts the focus from pathologizing neurodivergent traits to acceptance, self-determination, and supporting individuals in embracing their authentic selves, and living a life that makes accommodations for their needs.
Neurodivergent-affirming care also recognizes the societal stress, systemic oppression, and lived experience individuals and communities within these systems which can exacerbate symptoms often seen as “disordered” rather than a normal response to a stressful environment.
Rather than labeling these traits as disorders to be fixed, neurodivergent-affirming care sees them as valid, meaningful, and challenging ways of navigating the world that deserve support and understanding.
