ABOUT ME

Hi!  I am Katie.  I use she/her pronouns.  To me, therapy is more than talking; it is conversation that has a purpose.  I began my work in the mental health field working with young adults in a residential setting and spent time in the public school system.  I now specialize in trauma therapy, using researched-based therapies with children, adolescents, teens, and adults.  I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), among other treatment methods including anger management and play therapy.  I will help you identify the underlying cause of your distress and work with you to help you find balance, purpose, and restore your emotional health. 

I am a Clinical Social Worker, licensed in NYS.  I am a Certified EMDR Therapist through EMDRIA.  I was awarded the 2019 Outstanding Newly Trained Clinician Award by the WNY EMDR Regional Network.  I am a Registered Play Therapist™️ (RPT), certified through the Association for Play Therapy.
