Creating Space
Katy welcomes anyone who is interested in exploring themselves, their challenges, personal goals, identity, individuality or belonging to a family/relationship/community. She sees her role as a therapist as being a partner to her clients as they work towards gaining clarity, while providing active listening and empowering her clients to explore their thoughts and emotions. Katy uses tools such as guided meditation, breathing exercises, and creativity to help her clients settle into the practice of personal growth and self-awareness.
