Kathryn LaRoe, LCSW
Integrative PTSD/Trauma Therapist and Psychedelic Preparation/Integration Specialist

I work with clients virtually, meeting them over video to get to know them and establish a trusting relationship. From there, we co-create goals and a path way to achieve those intentional goals. I meet with my clients weekly initially and titrate down as clients establish habit and behaviors that help them gain confidence in their overall approach to life, spirituality, and relationships (to self and others.)
