Bio
Hello there! I'm Katie, and I'm here to be a kind friend and gentle support for those navigating mental health challenges and tough life circumstances. My background is in social work, with professional experience in crisis intervention. I've always believed in the power of lifting each other up, and that belief deepens for me every day.
I hold a firm belief in treating everyone with unconditional positive regard, free from judgment. We all have our stories and secrets, and my passion lies in helping those who struggle with feelings of shame and guilt. I naturally gravitate towards connecting with people who have a past they’re working through. This is deeply tied to my Christian values of mercy, empathy, and forgiveness.
I also have personal experience with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), eating disorders, shame, guilt, and addiction.
Please feel free to reach out anytime—I'm here to listen and would love to hear your story.
