My name is Katie and I am a Licensed Social Worker and received my Master’s from the University of Chicago. My background is in crisis management, women-focused perinatal support in the shelter setting, and research in maternal and infant mental health. I also have experience working with LGBTQ+ individuals. I bring this comprehensive view of medicine and mental health into my therapy practice.
As a therapist, an individual who identifies as disabled, and as someone who identifies as part of the LGBTQIA+ community, I believe healing comes from within. I work with individuals on their self-identified needs and goals utilizing an inclusive approach. In my work, I create an environment in which each client feels seen and validated as we work together to support them through their individual challenges and crises.
Life can be incredibly challenging and I hope to have the opportunity to support each client as they experience the joy, loss, and fear that comes with this period in their life.
Tools I utilize in the therapeutic space include mindfulness, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and solutions-focused therapy.
If you are ready to begin your first steps toward perinatal mental health, book an appointment with Crescent Moon Therapy.
