Kathryn E Sedgwick

Therapeutic self-examination constitutes a journey, a path to self-knowledge that will, as you grow in understanding and insight, better enable you to negotiate the hurdles and setbacks of ordinary life; set goals and achieve them; and give you tools with which to be more effective in your relationships with your loved ones, your work, your community, and the world at large.

We live in times of unprecedented change and stress: A global pandemic. Political polarization. Economic upheaval. Climate change. Kathryn Sedgwick, LCSW is a friendly, approachable therapist who specializes in putting you at ease by offering a safe, supportive, relaxed environment where you can do your best work. Whatever is troubling you ― anxiety, depression, relationships, sexuality, identity ― Kathryn offers insight borne of her personal experience as a trans woman, combined with a keen understanding of the social, political, and ecological contexts in which we all exist.

The focus will be on building a healing relationship utilizing a psychodynamic approach that incorporates elements of Cognitive and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, as well as a deep empathy for your pain and personal struggle. You will connect your past to the present while charting a course to your future ― a future that you, yourself, wish to see.

Kathryn emphasizes skill-building as a necessary precursor to personal growth, something many clients have never had the opportunity to practice. On that scaffolding you will drape the fabric of your new life, enhancing your self-esteem, defeating the existential blues, and making the most of your remaining time here on terra firma.
