• Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
• Certified Compassion Fatigue Educator (CCFE)

Hi, I’m Kathi. I’ve spent over 35 years helping people work through trauma, grief, secondary trauma, and burnout—especially those in caregiving roles, healthcare, first responder work, and other helping professions. I also have extensive experience supporting people impacted by violent crime, including survivors of homicide, suicide loss, interpersonal violence, and those who’ve witnessed traumatic events. Whether you were directly affected or came upon the aftermath, your story matters—and healing is possible. I genuinely love what I do and feel deeply honored to walk alongside people as they heal. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with mindfulness, trauma-informed art, yoga, and acupuncture detox techniques. I also draw from my experience as a Certified Compassion Fatigue Educator to support people who carry the emotional weight of caring for others. I believe in showing up with both compassion and humor—because even in the heaviest moments, a little light can go a long way. I strive to create a calm, collaborative space where you feel safe, seen, and genuinely supported. I value the importance of connection, social support, and the healing power of nature, and I bring that awareness into my work with clients. I’m committed to cultural responsiveness and meet each person where they are, guided by openness rather than assumptions. If you’re looking for grounded, creative support that honors your experience and helps you move toward balance and resilience, I’d be honored to work with you.
