Hello. I use a direct, yet supportive approach to focus on improving life skills and releasing negative beliefs and behaviors. Experience has shown that by changing unhealthy patterns, expressing fears, and taking gentle risks, it is possible to live a more satisfying life regardless of past traumas and other issues. With a combination of techniques, we will work together on both short and long term goals. I am an interactive therapist and encourage intensive work both in and out of the office. I have a home office and use video sessions as needed to help with time constraints/distance. I have two small sweet dogs.I specialize and have extensive training in working with trauma, grief, depression, eating disorders (Bulimia, Compulsive Overeating), I truly believe in the ability to move on from traumatic situations. Additional specialties can be found by visiting my website www.katherinethynelcsw.com I also have a Facebook site-Katherine Thyne.I have advanced training in EMDR, a productive way of treating traumas. I work hard to help you not only deal with past and present difficulties, but to see changes that last a lifetime. When working with Eating Disorders, I use a team approach with psychiatrists, family therapists, and nutritionists.
