You feel like anxiety has taken the driver's seat in your life. It’s as if everyone else got a secret guidebook on how to socialize, thrive, and navigate adulthood—and somehow, you missed out. Your mind is constantly racing, replaying interactions, second-guessing your choices, and imagining worst-case scenarios. On the outside, you’re ambitious and high-achieving, but inside, something feels off—like there’s a missing piece you can’t quite put your finger on. You’re exhausted, and while you can see the life you want so clearly, it feels out of reach.
Together, we can uncover the patterns that keep showing up in your life and find ways to break free from them. I’ll help you build the confidence and inner strength to create the life you’ve been longing for. My approach is anti-oppressive, strengths-based, and rooted in a deep commitment to affirming and supporting diverse identities and experiences. I provide a welcoming space for queer, trans, and BIPOC folx, as well as sex workers and those in polyamorous relationships. You don’t have to do this alone—I’m here to walk this path with you.

Get to Know Katy Rose:
Who is your ideal client?
I enjoy working with individuals who are looking for someone who leads with curiosity. My primary interest is working with teens/adolescents and young adults, members of the LGBT+ community and neurodivergent folks, as well as people facing elements of depression and/or ADHD in their healing journey.
What's something you wish people knew about therapy or the therapy process?
Sometimes it can be helpful to remind ourselves of some parallels between the mental/emotional healing processes and the physical ones. Just like a physician may need to rearrange a broken bone to correctly set it, or physical therapy can be challenging and uncomfortable, moments of difficulty when healing from a mental/emotional standpoint deserve to be honored as part of growing towards wellness.
Why do you like being a therapist?
I'm deeply grateful for the opportunity to accompany others in their healing journeys; it feels like meaningful work that aligns well with my personal values.
Besides being a therapist, what do you enjoy in your spare time?
I love gardening, reading fantasy fiction, drinking copious amounts of coffee, and spending time with my rabbits.
What is your favorite book, podcast, or mental health resource?
I've been enjoying the "being well" podcast with Forrest Hanson, as well as the many free guided meditation videos on YouTube and other content meant to help folks re-center and calm down--whether that be meditative music, binaural beats, or ASMR
