About

Hi! I'm Kate, a licensed clinical social worker in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Maine, living in Philadelphia, PA. I work with individuals looking for support with their anxiety, depression, exploration of their gender identity, and responses to trauma. I also have experience and an interest in working with folks who identify as queer, non-binary, trans, and/or neurodivergent, though I work with people with many intersecting identities. My therapeutic approach includes training from Gestalt, relational, complex trauma-informed, and mindfulness therapies. I work to keep my practice grounded in social justice, including but not limited to anti-racist, anti-capitalist, gender-affirming, anti-fatphobic, and non-pathologizing frameworks. In addition to my work as a psychotherapist, I volunteer with the Gestalt Training Institute of Philadelphia, of which I am a graduate. I currently have openings for telehealth and in-person sessions. I accept a handful of private insurances and offer a sliding scale for out-of-pocket payers. I invite you to reach out for a chat to see if we're a good fit!
