Hi! I’m Katie, and I’m a licensed psychotherapist helping people create a life they love. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in publishing at Penguin Random House and previously ran a jewelry line carried in over 250 stores nationwide. After earning my master’s from the Crown Family School of Social Work, I completed my clinical training at UChicago Medicine and LifePath Therapy Associates. Today, I use a combination of CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy to support C-suite executives, entrepreneurs, young professionals, writers, and anyone navigating uncertainty to create meaningful change.
