Kat is the owner and psychotherapist of Open Heart Psychotherapy. Her therapeutic style is relational, heart-centered, and grounded in the belief that healing becomes possible when we are met with compassion and presence in a safe environment. Kat offers a warm, accepting space where all parts of you are welcome without judgment. Her intention is to meet clients where they are and create a supportive space to process emotional wounds, build resilience, and move toward a more fulfilling and connected life.

She draws from transpersonal and humanistic modalities, including Gestalt, parts work, somatic practices, and mindfulness-based techniques. Kat supports individuals in reconnecting with their intuition, cultivating emotional awareness, and finding confidence in their ability to navigate relationships, trauma, and any other challenges life may present.
