Therapist

I'm Kate, a trauma-informed therapist licensed in Idaho and Washington who works exclusively with women 18 and older. My specialty is helping you understand the patterns that keep showing up — in your relationships, your reactions, your sense of self — and where they actually came from. I work with anxiety, trauma, PTSD, postpartum changes, grief, and life transitions. Whether you've been in therapy before or this is your first time, my style is warm, body-inclusive, and genuinely curious about who you are — not just the problem you came in with.
