She has experience working with individuals, families, and groups.

​

Her clinical approach is strength-based and rooted in a humanistic, person-centered philosophy. She utilizes evidence-based modalities including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Emotion-Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Kate believes in holistic healing and meaning-making, helping clients discover who they are outside of their eating disorder so they can show up as their most authentic selves in sport and in life. She values the power of the therapeutic relationship and the importance of healing in community. She meets clients where they are in their recovery, providing compassionate, individualized, and nonjudgmental care—with a touch of humor along the way.
