WELCOME

Are you experiencing:
  • Excessive worry or stress?

  • Struggles with self-confidence or self-criticism?

  • Feeling sad or alone?

  • Difficulty coping with change?

  • Feeling misunderstood by or disconnected from your partner?

  • Feeling stuck? 

As humans, our need for safe connections with others is vital. We come into the world completely dependent on others for survival, and this emotional urgency—and how others respond—forms the backdrop for our adult relationships.  

 

This is why relationship challenges often tap into our most raw needs and fears, and trigger such strong reactions. It’s no wonder that with our own history and unique vulnerabilities, we can feel stuck.

 

If you are feeling sad, angry, hurt or afraid, it may be because of coping strategies you relied on earlier in life. The good news is that with better understanding of ourselves and others, we can create the emotional space to become more secure in ourselves and our relationships.

Hi, my name is Kate Pooley. I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and work with individual adults. Through non-judgmental, attachment-oriented therapy, I create a safe space for you to uncover underlying emotions and express them in a way that builds stronger relationships with yourself and others.
