Hi, I’m Kaitlin
I am a licensed somatic psychotherapist, trauma-informed consultant, mindfulness educator, and nature lover. I am passionate about helping people and the Earth heal through mindful, compassionate living. As a psychotherapist, a “soul healer”, I take a whole-being approach to my work (mind, body, soul) and incorporate aspects of spirituality, as defined by each client, into the healing work.
I have been captivated by the resilience of the human spirit for as long as I can remember. Looking back, I see the through-line connecting past jobs and roles in my life, all of which focused on helping others. My interest in psychology and working with trauma solidified during my experiences working as a deputy sheriff. These experiences were a master class in humanity and opened both my eyes and heart to the daily impact of trauma on the lives I served and worked beside within my communities.
For the past fifteen years, I have worked across various mental health settings, including community mental health, mobile crisis, elementary schools, residential treatment programs, online wellness programs, and clinical private practice. Each experience has offered me a unique set of opportunities to learn and gain a deeper knowledge set into ways of cultivating healing: mind, body, and soul. Over the past decade, I have expanded my therapeutic approach beyond my Western psychology foundation to include more holistic, alternative ways of healing that resonate with me on a deeper level, including energy work, Earth-based practices, sound healing, and core shamanism.
I am a feminist, LGBTQ+ advocate, adventurer, & nature steward.
I currently specialize in somatic psychotherapy (mind-body connection), women’s health, LBGTQ+ population, and holistic wellness. I work with individuals who are ready to level up their life for greater emotional and physiological regulation, balance, and freedom in their lives. The majority of clients whom I work with are self-aware, spiritually-minded or open, have previous success in therapy.
I am deeply passionate about guiding people to discover, embody, and shamelessly live out their lives with greater authenticity and truth. Because I know from my healing journey that it is possible to live a life that is unapologetically true, authentic, and free. We only need to say “yes”.
The work I offer is a tapestry of wisdom woven from Nature, Eastern philosophies, meditation, creative and expressive arts, somatic psychotherapies, and women’s circles.
Core Values
Freedom
I am here to help you be wholly you. To rise and reclaim your divine nature. To exist perfectly imperfect. To laugh, cry, move, express, sit, breathe in existence and know you are enough.
Expression
I support you in the full expression of your authentic self. To discover or rediscover your voice and boldly live out from your core essence. Dance, sing, cry, walk, breathe, laugh. It’s all good and welcome with me.
Earth
Mother Earth. Gaia. Our anchoring center. Deep wisdom and soul embodiment comes most easily when we are connected to Earth. Rooted and connected. Nature in her essence is healing. She’s the perfect embodiment of the sacred feminine. Wise, wild, powerful, gentle, nurturing, fierce, intuitive, gracious, beautiful, and mysterious. She is I and I am She.
Authenticity
I value being real. In doing my best to walk my talk, mean what I say, and live in alignment. I believe in demonstrating the change, healing, and leadership I hope to cultivate in the world, not just talking about it.
Spirit
I am talking about soul healing and freedom. Mind, body, emotions, spirit. It is a spiritual journey to access our deepest core self and reclaim our birthright to exist just as we are.
Harmony
Can’t we all just get along? Within ourselves, within humanity, with Mother Earth. Harmony in each waking moment. Ebb and flow of life’s innate cycles. Sound nice, right?
Connection
To the Earth, to ourselves, to one another. A tribe of strong, wise humans honoring and supporting one another and our world.
Adventure
I love to travel, learn, and experience new things! Whether it is sipping whiskey in Scotland, trekking the Himalayas in Nepal, enjoying mineral baths of natural hot springs, walking the streets of a new town. The freedom to explore fuels my soul.
Joy
Spiritual healing doesn’t have to be so serious! Joy and play carry the currents of life and deeply transformative.
