Hi! My name is Kaitlyn Thompson. I use she/her pronouns. I practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate here in North Carolina after earning my Master of Social Work from Appalachian State University and Bachelor of Social Work from NC State University. I always felt drawn to help others and was drawn to social work in particular as I can combine a passion for mental health work with values emphasizing the inherent worth of every person. I especially enjoy working with children, adolescents, and families, but I welcome anyone of any age. No matter who you are or the challenges you are facing, I will provide an unbiased, compassionate, safe space for processing, healing, and growth. I am from a military family and so I am not originally from North Carolina, but I have enjoyed living here for over a decade now. Outside of work, you’d find me spending time with family, reading a good book, baking bread, binging television, or enjoying weekend trips to the NC mountains or beaches.
