Katrina Goli

Katrina Goli is a Mental Health Counselor located in New York. She works with young adults to those in mid-life who find themselves wrestling with patterns relating to identity and sense of self, relationships, careers, and sense of direction, meaning, and purpose. These patterns can cause great suffering – shame, low self-worth, identity confusion, fear of intimacy and vulnerability, difficulty setting healthy boundaries, perfectionism, unhealthy coping strategies, self-sabotage, unmanageable feelings, and feeling lost and sometimes hopeless. By recognizing these patterns – some of which clients might not yet even be aware of – and understanding why they have been necessary, clients can be liberated from them and empowered to heal and change.

Katrina has particular interests in childhood trauma work, life transitions, our relationships with self and others, and our search for purpose and meaning. She has a special passion for working with those who seek a deeper understanding of themselves, and who appreciate the value of the inner journey.

Katrina approaches counseling from a holistic perspective – clients’ physical, emotional, social, and spiritual wellbeing are all essential. She believes the healing journey includes being curious about and integrating wounded, painful, and helpful parts so clients can start to live their authentic lives from a coherent and meaningful place.

Katrina has a master’s degree in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness from New York University (NYU). She has a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree and obtained her Master of Laws degree (LL.M.) from Columbia University. Prior to counseling, Katrina apprenticed at a Zen monastery and completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training.
