Katie Wiese

Masters Level Intern

Whether you’re a parent worried about your child, a teen trying to figure out where you fit, or an adult feeling overwhelmed by life, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I know reaching out for help can be intimidating but I am happy you’re here and investing in yourself and/or your loved one. Therapy is a great place to start addressing the big feelings that can come along with life’s struggles. My intention is to meet you with understanding and acceptance, because sometimes it feels good just to be heard.

I work with children, adolescents, and adults struggling with stress/burnout, anxiety, self-esteem, depression, ADHD, identity questions, relationship issues, and life adjustments. I will encourage you to use creativity, self-exploration, community building, play, and even humor to explore the unique tools that may be helpful for you. My goal is to create an environment where all clients feel seen, empowered and have the resources they need to thrive in their schools, workplaces, and social lives.

My clients often describe me as warm, attentive, easygoing, and encouraging. As a result, I am passionate about creating an equitable space for all. I am LGBTQ+ friendly, happy to work with neurodiverse folks, and people of all races, religions, and cultures. It would be my absolute honor to walk you towards a place of growth, hope, and healing.

FAQ

1. How do I know which therapist is right for me?
Finding the right therapist is an important part of successful treatment. We consider factors such as your concerns, goals, preferred therapeutic approach, availability, location, etc.

If you’re unsure who would be the best fit, our team can help guide you.

2. How are your therapists selected?
Our practice brings together mental health professionals with different backgrounds, areas of expertise, and clinical interests.

When matching you with a therapist, we consider your needs and goals as well as the therapist’s experience and availability.

3. Will I have a real person helping me choose a therapist?
Yes. If you aren’t sure where to start, our team can help you navigate the process.

You don’t have to search through dozens of therapist profiles and try to determine on your own who might be the right fit.

4. Can I request a specific therapist?
Yes. You may request a specific therapist if you have someone in mind.

If that therapist isn’t available or isn’t the best clinical fit, our team can help identify another therapist who may be appropriate.

5. What if my therapist isn’t the right fit for me?
Finding the right therapeutic relationship matters.

If you don’t feel that your therapist is the right fit, we encourage you to communicate with us. Because we are a group practice with therapists who have different specialties and approaches, we may be able to help you find another therapist within our practice who better matches your needs. You should never feel that you have to stay with a therapist simply because you started with them.

6. Can I see another therapist at the practice if my needs change?
Yes, when clinically appropriate and subject to availability.

One benefit of a group practice is that you have access to therapists with different areas of expertise. Your needs may change over time, and your care can change with them.

7. What happens if my therapist leaves the practice?
If your therapist is no longer available, our team can help you explore options for continuing care.

As a group practice, we may be able to help you transition to another therapist within our practice who is appropriate for your needs.

8. Do I have to know exactly what I need before contacting you?

No.

You don’t need to know your diagnosis, treatment plan, or even which type of therapist you need before reaching out.

That’s part of what our team is here to help with.

Your mental health starts with you. Let us help you on your journey.
