Katherina Vansickel, LCSW
Sees ages 18+
Hello, my name is Katie Vansickel, and I have been providing therapy to individuals, couples, and families for around ten years. My approach is client centered, which allows me to get to know you and help you define what changes you'd like to make, and set your goals for therapy. In addition, I utilize CBT, Structural Family Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing techniques to encourage the process. I always practice from a trauma and attachment-based perspective, and I believe that everyone deserves a space where they are free from judgement.
