Katy Feeser, LCSW
Licensed Therapist
Welcome to a safe place where healing can happen
Are you ready to live in your truth? Let go of your past to live more in the present? Learn to rest and reset to feel better? How therapy works is unique to each of us. While we share much in common, we all carry experiences, beliefs, dreams, and fears that are ours alone. Your perspectives deserve to be heard. It is important to me to support individuals (& families) on the path to finding solutions that are sustainable and an overall emotional balance that has been needed. You deserve to feel good, feel worthy and to connect with what choices you have.
I have been providing clinical mental health care over the past 16 years. This has entailed helping children and adults individually and as families to navigate many types of challenges and hardships. As a former community mental health therapist I also served as a field instructor for MSW students. I have continued on to work in the therapy setting with a focus on becoming EMDR certified. Along the way I became interested in merging my knowledge and training from children and adolescents as my primary age group served to extend into treating adults. What transformed the mental health treatment landscape was being trained in EMDR in 2018, and now being in process of becoming EMDR certified. Aiding in psychological recovery from great stresses and supporting new adaptive beliefs that free individuals from feeling so depressed, worried, shut down, and stuck in the same patterns is wholly possible.
I support teens and adults needing to heal from their own childhood adversities or who have road blocks needing overcome at this phase in life. If you are finding you cannot recover from a life stress – be that you’re your family is not accepting you as you are, you are in an unhealthy relationship, you don’t quite feel “seen”, your moods or anxiety are interfering with your responsibilities or ability to feel good, managing a loss has left you feeling in despair, or you just know some of your coping behaviors are impediments to where you would like to be we can identify together what roadmap will transform your mind and body to get to your own “better days”.
I like to ask:
“What would be the change you would feel or see down the road that will tell you this process helped?”
I’ll be here ready to help you cultivate resources that will strengthen your abilities to feel better and maintain this.
