Layers Counseling, LLC

“Trauma work is a very nuanced. Katie is the kind of person that you want helping you work through yours. She is very understanding, kind, and is extremely knowledgeable in her field. When I first met with Katie, I immediately felt comfortable with her and I could see that she was genuinely wanting to help.That's what you need in someone who is a therapist - the obvious willingness to help. I would (and have) recommend Katie to anyone who is needing and wanting help.”

“I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to put into words what Katie has meant to me, but I’m sure gonna try….. I met Katie during one of the hardest seasons of my life, and my first impression, I knew there was something special about her. She has a calm confidence that immediately made me feel safe. I had the privilege of working with Katie for over two years, and the only reason I stopped is because I moved across the country. If I hadn’t moved, she’d still be my therapist today. Katie has an incredible ability to gently guide you into the conversations you need to have without ever making you feel pressured or judged. She asks thoughtful questions, listens deeply, and somehow knows exactly when to challenge you and when to simply sit with you. I always felt genuinely cared for. She is also incredibly relatable in a way that never takes away from her professionalism—she feels human, grounded, and real, which made it even easier to open up and feel safe with her. Her work with somatic therapy completely changed the way I understand myself. She helped me recognize how my body was holding onto difficult experiences and taught me how to become more regulated. Because of our work together, I have more confidence, greater self-awareness, and healthier relationships. One of the most meaningful things she taught me is that relationships can always be repaired—a lesson that has changed the way I show up for the people I love. Katie is incredibly intelligent, wise, and truly gifted at what she does. She creates a space that feels both safe and empowering, while maintaining the kind of professionalism and boundaries that make it easy to trust her. If you’re looking for a therapist who is compassionate, insightful, and genuinely invested in helping people heal and grow, I cannot recommend Katie highly enough. She has changed my life, and I will always be grateful our paths crossed.”

“If you’ve spent years talking about your trauma, understanding your patterns, and gaining insight but still feel stuck in anxiety, overwhelm, people-pleasing, or unhealthy relationship patterns, Katie is the therapist I recommend. Her approach combines Somatic Experiencing, attachment work, and nervous system regulation to help create real, lasting change—not just more awareness. Katie has a gift for helping people feel safe, seen, and understood while gently addressing the root causes of their struggles. If you’re looking for support with trauma healing, nervous system retraining, anxiety, PTSD, or attachment wounds and are ready to move beyond simply talking about your experiences, Katie’s work is truly transformative.”

“Katie is an incredible and highly skilled trauma therapist. If you’ve tried talk therapy and it hasn’t work for you- I highly recommend Katie as a somatic experiencing therapist. She will change your life. She keeps it real but also will take time to build trust with you unlike any therapist I’ve ever worked with. Thank you Katie!”
