Author ✦ Therapist ✦ Coach
Hi I'm Kate (she/her)! I'm a licensed therapist, author, coach, and domestic violence survivor, dedicated to helping toxic relationship survivors heal and learn to trust themselves again. My approach blends professional expertise with real, lived experience. I am a cis-gender woman, of Chilean and European settler descent, living on Duwamish land. I am pansexual, neurodivergent with ADHD 💕🌈
Podcasts & Speaking Engagements
I’ve trained other therapists in continuing education courses, and I have been featured on podcasts, panels, and forums where I talk about domestic violence, healthy relationships, ADHD, and healing from trauma.
