Kas Ross is a psychotherapist and art therapist focused on working with queer, transgender, and non-binary youth and adults at Full Spectrum Creative Arts Therapy, a queer & trans group practice that provides in-person and remote psychotherapy for clients throughout New York State. Kas cares deeply about issues surrounding identity formation and self-esteem, human rights and advocacy, intersectionality, and culturally sensitive, affirming care. They incorporate holistic and eastern approaches into their work, including art and music, Tai-Chi movement, breathwork, and meditation.

Kas has worked with a variety of diverse groups both online and in-person, including LGBTQIA+ communities located in the U.S. and internationally, inpatient and outpatient psychiatric populations, young individuals with autism and microcephaly, and BIPOC adolescents involved in the juvenile justice system.

Kas approaches clients from a trauma informed lens with an awareness of attachment style and relational history. Client centered at their core, Kas works to provide clients a safe therapeutic space to explore and affirm embodiment goals, life transitions, and strategies for wellness.
