Introduction

Hi I'm Kathleen Maldonado. I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 9 years of experience helping teens, young adults, and women heal from trauma, navigate life transitions, and build lasting self-esteem. ​I know how heavy life can feel when you’re carrying abandonment wounds, unresolved pain, or the pressure of “figuring it all out” alone. My passion is walking alongside you as you untangle those burdens and begin to feel lighter, clearer, and more hopeful. ​My approach is trauma-informed and holistic, blending evidence-based methods like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy.
