I bring a social justice lens and understanding of systems of oppression into therapeutic work. I will tell you what I am thinking, will challenge you intellectually, and actively engage with you.

Prioritizing mental health today can be so difficult to do today, but is important now more than ever. Along with prioritizing mental health, many of us engage in school, work, relationships, family dynamics, and friendships. After a while, many of these pressures may start to affect us in different ways leading us to experience anxiety, stress, bouts of sadness, irritability, and so much more. I did not even mention any unresolved trauma or feelings that may be experienced on top of everything ...

My approach to therapy is holistic. I consider your culture, worldview, family practices, race/ethnicity, faith, sexual orientation, as well as other attributes that make you, YOU. I believe there is significant growth and beauty that comes through pain and challenges. That healing has much to do with grace and forgiveness, as does truth and accountability. I will provide guidance, or sometimes silent support to help you meet your goals and gain insight and resolution to what troubles you. The s...

In doing so, building confidence, connection and tuning into the knowledge within you. Providing pause and opportunity to meet feelings, narratives, patterns and roles with curiosity and compassion. Building capacity for uncertainty and healthy coping as we learn and understand the context in which roles and reactions were shaped and cultivated, and how this self aware...

Do you feel like you're always falling short of your own expectations? Maybe things came easily to you as a kid, but now you're having a hard time adjusting to life as an adult.

Hi, I'm Kate. I provide counseling to individuals and couples in the north Seattle area. My approach to therapy begins with relationship as I believe both harm and healing happen within the context of relationships. Perhaps you are tired of feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or depressed. Maybe you've experienced a significant loss that has shifted your roles and beliefs. You don't have to figure this out alone. My focus is to develop a trusting relationship with you and provide a safe environment wh...
- You want to do well at university — not just pass, but actually feel proud of what you get done. The problem is, your own expectations feel impossible to meet, and the fear of failing (even by your own standards) can make every class deadline and life chore feel like too much. If you’re a student with ADHD or autism, this pressure can feel even heavier — especially when traditional help doesn’t always work for you. I help neurodiverse students like you — through tutoring and coaching se...

My goal is to provide quality mental health care to my clients in an inclusive and accepting space. The name "divergent" came from the idea that we all come to crossroads in our lives, and sometimes we need a little help choosing which path to take. Divergent also means "tending to be different." My hope is that anyone who has ever felt different, judged, marginalized, or otherwise unaccepted can feel welcomed here. I support individuals of all sexual orientations, gender identities, fai...
People are multifaceted, therefore I take a holistic, trauma informed approach to treating clients and look at the various symptoms and challenges one may be experiencing. Talk therapy is often beneficial on its own, but I enjoy bringing in other elements such as play, humor, and art to enhance the expression and understanding of one’s feelings and experiences. I welcome clients’ ideas and creativity as we work together. I believe with empowerment and exploration people can use internal resource...
