Katherine (Kate) Allen, MFT Trainee

My name is Katherine, but you can call me Kate. Welcome to The Center of Resiliency — I’m really glad you’re here. If you’re feeling unsure about starting therapy, I completely understand. Maybe you’re feeling weighed down by school stress, stuck in anxious or obsessive thoughts, exhausted from trying to meet others’ expectations, or simply feeling like life has become too much to carry alone. It can be daunting to share your life with someone new, but by being here, you’ve already taken a brave step for yourself. I offer a supportive space where you can feel understood, find relief, and start to feel more like yourself again.

I’m honored to work with clients from all backgrounds and am especially passionate about supporting teens and adults with OCD, ADHD, anxiety, self-esteem challenges, people-pleasing, academic stress, and relationship issues. Together, we’ll build coping skills, strengthen self-compassion, and navigate life with more confidence.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but you do not have to do it alone. There’s no need to have it all figured out before reaching out; taking the first step is enough. I’m here to listen with compassion, support you at your own pace, and help you take meaningful steps toward feeling more grounded and supported in your day-to-day life.
