You Don't Have to Face This Alone
You need to talk to someone. You're in a stressful place in your life. Our sessions can be empowering and challenging, yet comfortable and at times humorous. Together, we'll build your confidence and resilience. Healing is a journey, and you don't have to navigate it alone. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, process difficult emotions, and rediscover your strengths. As we work together, you'll gain greater insight, confidence, and trust in yourself while moving toward lasting growth and healing.
ABOUT Katrin
A Decade of Compassionate Care
My name is Katrin, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. Over a decade ago, I started my career in the mental health field as a Residential Counselor and then as a Lead Transitional-Age Youth Counselor for a Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program. I am now a practicing therapist with You First Health Systems and a Research Associate for Dr. Robert M. Post, MD, at the Bipolar Collaborative Network.
For the past eight years, I have worked closely with Dr. Post, an internationally recognized expert in bipolar disorder and mood disorders. Through my research work, I stay current with emerging findings in psychiatry and evidence-based treatments, allowing me to bring both clinical experience and scientific knowledge into the therapy room.
I am passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges, heal from difficult experiences, and build meaningful, fulfilling lives. I strive to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your experiences, build confidence, and move toward lasting growth and healing.
Eclectic Approach
Recognizing each client's individuality, I take an eclectic approach to treatment, tailoring methods that best meet each of my clients' unique needs. I am dedicated to ongoing education and training to enhance my expertise.
Research Informed Care
I incorporate current research and evidence-based practices into my clinical work to ensure clients receive informed, effective treatment. As a Research Associate for Dr. Robert M. Post at the Bipolar Collaborative Network, I bring together advances in psychiatric research and real-world clinical practice to provide care grounded in the latest scientific understanding.
