I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with over five years of experience in crisis, community, substance use, and correctional mental health settings. Using trauma-informed and DBT-informed approaches, I provide a calm, direct, and practical therapeutic environment. I am dedicated to helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma-related stress, anger, relationship concerns, life transitions, substance use, and feeling stuck. My goal is to offer a steady, non-judgmental space where clients can build concrete coping skills and regain their footing. 

By integrating CBT, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques, I help clients identify negative patterns, process difficult emotions, and take actionable steps forward. I collaborate closely with each individual to help them leave sessions equipped with practical tools for daily life. 

Taking the first step takes courage, especially when you are used to carrying things on your own. I am committed to walking alongside clients through difficult seasons, providing an encouraging and supportive environment for growth.

My name is Katrina and I am a Trauma Recovery Therapist. I have a background in post-traumatic stress, trauma recovery, behavioral change, and family dynamics. If you are someone who can identify your desire to take steps—no matter their size—toward change, or if you're simply looking for answers about why you feel the way you do regarding life's challenges, we could be a good fit. I have worked with survivors of sexual trauma and domestic violence, and I have experience with those who have experienced incarceration. I am empathetic, optimistic, realistic, and challenge-driven. My goal in therapy is to help you realize your goals.

An open and honest dynamic is important to me. I'm not intimidated by emotions and I'm willing to challenge unhelpful beliefs. Stress, depression, anxiety, compulsion, and trauma are treatable conditions given the right space, time, and resources. When you make time to care for yourself, you're taking a step that deserves recognition—it is a leap forward.

I commend you on considering a change in your life. I encourage you to ask questions and find answers that you are comfortable with. Let's sit down together and make a plan for the next part of your great adventure- leave everything on the table, whatever led you this far, listen to that and take the next step.
