Katie Harrold, MA, LMFT

 
I work in a variety of ways to help clients approach their emotions,
thoughts, behaviors and relationships in more flexible and comfortable ways so they can grow, change and heal. I take time to discover each person's approach to, and place in, the world. People's life stories inspire me to help clients draw on their own intrinsic resources for healing. I help strengthen and enhance relationships by collaboratively exploring life experiences and patterns, with a goal of increasing resiliency and emotional functioning. I integrate these stories to create unique opportunities for change, growth and healing in our therapy process to help you get "unstuck." I work with individuals, couples, youth, and families; as you the client define and construct them. I am a relationship focused therapist. This means that I view people as in constant relationship to others: family, partner, children, friends, and community. I believe that individuals also benefit from this therapeutic approach. Some of my areas of special interest and experience include: use of play and art therapy techniques, and work with gender, youth, GLBTQ and loss issues.
 

Who this helps:

Individuals, couples, youth and families of all definitions, and their surrounding communities.
 

Results:

Clients see significant reductions in distress, better relationships, and resolution of targeted problems.
