Kate Nielsen, LCSW

Hello Beautiful! I want to come along with you on your journey of healing and self-discovery. I have been working with people of all ages for over 15 years to heal from the traumas they have experienced. Growing up in a house with substance use and anger, I was able to develop myself as an empath. This ability has helped me to tune in to my clients, transmute their energy in a loving way, and help them to take steps to begin their own healing processes. Being an empath has opened me up spiritually and intuitively. It has helped me find faith and connection in everything. I want to help you feel this connection and this deeper love and healing. I am trained in EMDR, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Trauma Systems Therapy. I am a Reiki Master/Teacher and a certified Medium. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and have experience working with individuals and couples in a variety of formations. I use traditional tools such as talk therapy, childhood trauma work, thought distortions identification, and animal-assisted therapy with non-traditional tools like meditation, tarot cards, chakra work, and spirituality to help my clients on their path of healing. I am honored and excited to start working with you!

Testimonials
From A.L.

“Working with Kate over the last few years has made all the difference to my mental health. She has helped me develop a better and more trusting relationship with myself and has provided me with countless coping strategies that I continue to use long term. I see Kate regularly on a schedule whether I feel like I "need" it or not, and I always get so much out of our sessions. She provides a safe, warm, and welcoming space.”

From L.W.

"Kate has been an understanding, reliable, and useful resource during my many transitions over the last year. She has made me feel comfortable in counseling, and has given me several tools to ground myself (such as meditation techniques and mindful exercises). I feel so lucky to have found Kate!"

From S.E.

“I have suffered from anxiety for years, and it has manifested differently during different periods of my life. Kate has been the first therapist who has been able to address my anxiety with a psycho-spiritual perspective. Instead of trying to mask the intuitive and empathic traits that hugely make up who I am, Kate has taught me to tap into these unique facets of myself and incorporate them in my life in productive, realistic and healthy ways. Working with Kate has allowed me to embrace and understand parts of myself that I was previously taught to dismiss. I have a newfound confidence and love for myself and life after working closely with Kate over the past 8 months. I recommend her to anyone who is interested in understanding themselves through a deeply spiritual lens in order to lead a fulfilling, dynamic, and balanced life."
