You've taken the leap and want help with the landing.

If you're in the midst of change—new place, new role, or new chapter—I’m here to help you find your footing with experienced, structured support.

Hi, I'm Kate.

I help people navigate change with purpose, clarity, and confidence.

As a mental health counselor for over eight years, I’ve seen how disorienting big life changes can be, and how powerful they become when people have the tools and support they need to grow through them.

Together, we’ll build the skills you need to feel grounded in the face of uncertainty.

More About Me

Big changes can stir up a lot: from identity questions to value conflicts, existential uncertainty to relational shifts.

It can feel disorienting, lonely, or like you're disappointing others by following your own path.

I’ve been there, and I’ve walked alongside others as they went through it, too. What I’ve learned is this:

You don’t need all the answers to find your footing. But you can root into your values, clarify your needs, and move forward with courage and compassion.

Together, we'll apply specific skills that can be practiced with intention—tools that help you land gently, navigate wisely, and integrate this change into your life in a meaningful way.

Change shakes things up— sometimes in ways you didn't expect

Maybe you’ve landed in a new city, role, or chapter of life. You were excited, hopeful, and even relieved to leave the old behind. But now that you’re here, the reality feels more complex.

You might feel caught between who you were and who you want to become. You may be questioning your choices, navigating competing priorities, or longing for the comfort of what you left behind.

The middle can be messy. You don't have to sort through it alone. I'll hold space for you to process your experiences so you can sort through the chaos and quiet the noise.

Clients often leave sessions feeling:

more grounded and self-aware
less isolated in their experience
clearer about their values, goals, and choices
better equipped to navigate the ups and downs
reconnected to their strengths, purpose, and inner sense of direction

2. Consultation: Our call is a chance for you to ask any questions you have for me, and share a bit about what you're going through. This will help you get a feel for my style, and help both of us assess whether I'd be a good fit for you at this time.
