I have been in private practice for 20 years with my specialty focusing on individuals resolving historic traumas and women balancing all of the complications of womanhood in a fast paced, demanding world. My style is informed from my diverse experience. I have worked in adolescent residential treatment, FBI consulting, an expert witness and a graduate school professorship; all the while working with my private practice clients. In the last several years, I have been sought out as a corporate consultant and speaker to discuss how our negative experiences and traumas shape our behaviors as high intensity professionals.
The untapped magnificence I see in my clients never ceases to inspire and amaze me. Anyone who is willing to do hard work is already a gift to this World! I've grown bored of many things in my life but this work....never!
Katherine is a prenatal and perinatal psychologist passionate about babies, families, and success. She has worked as a care coordinator, doula, and mental health provider in the community and clinical settings.
Welcome! My style is warm and eclectic. I draw from a variety of evidenced-based models, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic and Attachment Focused EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to address your concerns and distressing symptoms. I am also a registered yoga teacher (RYT-200), and I enjoy integrating aspects of yoga, including mindfulness and a mind/body approach into therapy where appropriate.
I am an EMDRIA certified EMDR therapist. I specialize in complex trauma, especially within relationships and attachment. This means that most of my clients struggle with anxiety, shame, depression, low self-esteem, people-pleasing, codependency, disordered eating, attachments and communication. My niche is working with "cycle breakers" who are navigating how to get unstuck from learned patterns that are no longer serving them. They are often adult children of emotionally immature parents. Dysfunctional patterns often begin long before adulthood and can be rooted in painful family dynamics and/or generational trauma.
I graduated from UNC-Charlotte in 2012. I am a licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have worked in a school setting for several years supporting the social and emotional needs of children. I have worked in the University setting as a college counselor and I also have experience working with adults in the community. I would love to walk alongside of you in your journey.
I am a Masters-level therapist dual-licensed in clinical mental health counseling and addictions counseling in North Carolina and Georgia. I am a Level II Certified Attachment-Based Family Therapist and a Certified Adoption Competent Therapist. I am also certified in Natural Flow EMDR. I specialize in treating adolescents, young adults, parents, and families who are struggling with a variety of mental health symptoms and behavioral problems.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Asheville
Searching for postpartum therapists in Asheville starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Postpartum concerns can include postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity shifts, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for experience with perinatal mental health, pregnancy therapy, and therapy for moms. A therapist with a PMH-C credential has completed specialized training in perinatal mental health, which can be a helpful signal when you review profiles.
Asheville is a smaller city, so the number of local postpartum therapists with current availability may vary. Virtual care can expand your options, especially if your schedule is unpredictable, you are arranging infant care, or you are recovering physically after pregnancy or birth. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can help you understand their approach, communication style, and experience supporting new parents before you book.
Therapy in Asheville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before booking. Headway makes it easier to find postpartum therapists, compare profiles, and book directly when you’re ready. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your specific location and plan, and see whether a therapist offers virtual or in-person appointments and is accepting new patients.
