Courage isn’t about having no fear—it’s about feeling it and walking straight toward it. And let’s be honest, some days courage is just answering the phone, replying to that text, or—YIKES—opening the front door. Maybe you’ve mastered looking “fine” on the outside, while on the inside you’re desperately hoping no one gets close enough to see the real you. I get it. We all want life to be easy, but counseling? Yeah, it’s not always easy. It’s work. It’s showing up. It’s sticking with it when it feels uncomfortable. If you’re still reading this, I’m guessing something in your life feels heavy and you wish it could just magically change. I can’t promise magic—but I can promise to walk beside you every step of the way, helping you find your footing and your balance again.

I believe in the power of psychoeducation and personalized mental health care, creating a unique treatment plan for each client with specific, measurable goals. I use several modalities, including therapeutic breathwork, CBT, and DBT to help clients quickly reduce symptoms while evaluating unhealthy emotional and behavioral patterns. I work with adolescents and adults suffering from mood and anxiety disorders, complex trauma, women’s issues, narcissistic abuse, attachment issues, and personality disorders. I also work with couples to improve communication, develop healthy conflict-resolution skills, and create a long-term family vision and mission that restores harmony in everyday life. I believe psychoeducation and a personalized mental health care plan empower clients to make lasting changes quickly. I create a unique treatment plan for each client with specific, measurable goals. I am licensed as an LPC Associate and supervised by Dr. Bryan C. Duncan, PhD, LPC-S.

I am a ‘Recovering Perfectionist’ that has struggled with anxiety for much of my life. I know how it feels to get stuck in my own head wondering what others think, trying to do everything ‘right’ (whatever that really means), and putting others before myself. I know what it feels like to want to give up and just avoid everything all together. So when we work together, you won’t just get a trained therapist, but also someone who truly understands what you are going through and what it means to find the right balance between challenging yourself and validating your progress to keep you going so you can reach your goals.

Welcome - I'm Kate! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate under the supervision of Katie Nix, MA, LPC- Supervisor. I work at The Well Therapy Group in uptown Dallas and have the privilege of working with adolescent and young adult women on their healing journey. My passion lies in helping clients navigate the challenges most common in this life stage, including obsessive-compulsive disorder, eating disorders, anxiety disorders, and interpersonal relationship struggles. I offer a space that is gentle, non-judgmental, and rooted in compassion—where clients are empowered to stop apologizing for what’s outside their control and begin turning that energy inward, toward healing and self-acceptance. Whether you choose to meet in-person at my Uptown Dallas office or virtually from anywhere in Texas, I’m here to walk alongside you. Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all, and I’m honored to support you—wherever you are—as you step into authorship of your own story.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure things out alone — I’m here to support you. I’ve been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2016 and work with teens, college students, and adults, with a primary focus on ages 18–60+. I support people with concerns like anxiety, depression, stress, relationships, self-esteem, burnout, and big life transitions. My goal is to create a calm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can talk openly about what’s really going on and learn healthier ways to handle life’s challenges. I especially enjoy working with students who are juggling academic pressure, perfectionism, relationship stress, identity questions, and the feeling of being overwhelmed. Therapy with me is collaborative and practical. We focus on what you want to work on and what will actually help in your day-to-day life. I like to give you tools, insight, and strategies you can use outside of session, not just talk about problems. I’ll meet you where you are, support you, and gently challenge you when it helps you grow. We focus mostly on the present and future, and we explore the past when it’s useful for your healing. My hope is that you leave sessions feeling more grounded, confident, and capable of handling whatever comes next.

Do you ever feel unheard, unseen, or misunderstood? Maybe even hurt by cliche responses you hear in your life such as “everything happens for a reason,” or “everything will be ok” or “you’re strong and you’ll get through this.” Are you feeling anxious or overthinking and playing scenarios in your mind? Questioning whether if this is the right decision and how it would impact your life? Worried about disappointing others as expectations were placed upon you. Or wondering if this is the right degree program for me? Maybe not recognizing yourself anymore. Overwhelmed by the pressure of life that it's difficult to be motivated. Not knowing what the future holds can be a scary feeling. I would like to come alongside you on this journey to help you to have a renewed and empowered life. Imagine being free from shame or guilt to be who you want to be. To feel confident in your decision making. Being able to let go of others' expectations that were placed on you. To be able to live in the present moment and be at peace of the unknown. You can expect to walk away from our sessions feeling heard, validated, and encouraged. If you are looking for someone that relates to you as an Asian American, or a first generation college student/graduate, please reach out to book a free 15 minute phone consultation to get to know a little about each other and ask any questions you may have. It would be an honor to partner with you in your healing.

College is supposed to be exciting, full of possibility and growth, but it can also feel overwhelming, lonely, and uncertain in ways no one really prepares you for. The pressure to succeed and have everything figured out, adds up. If you’ve been carrying more than you can hold on your own, you don’t have to keep doing it alone. Reaching out doesn’t mean something is wrong with you. It means you’re human—and you deserve support, understanding, and a space where you can finally exhale.

Whether you are struggling with past or recent trauma, anger, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, relationship concerns or marital issues, it is important that you know you do not have to be alone in this journey. You deserve someone who will listen intently, understand fully, and provide an open, supportive, and non-judgmental space to rebuild through. No problem is too great to overcome if you are willing to do the work. Therapy helps you develop a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, become free of old patterns, or simply find ways to process pain or memories that have kept you feeling stuck. It is a healing process that allows you to not only start feeling better but gain insight, awareness, and ultimately begin trusting your intuition and experience. Relationships are as capable of hurt and pain as they are for healing.

Feeling overwhelmed and frustrated by the question 'so what's next after graduation?' Do you feel like you're still trying to figure out who you are, what you like, and just trying to navigate one day at a time? Then, you've come to the right place. I've been in your shoes and I know how hard it is dealing with the pressures from others, while you're just trying to get through your classes and enjoy time with friends. In sessions with me, I strive to offer you a safe space for you to share and process your thoughts, feelings, and current things going on in your life. The therapy space is a space for you, so we will work together to make sure you're getting all the help you need and meeting the goals important to you.

Finding calm and clarity when your mind won’t slow down is possible. I can guide the way. We have more influence over our thoughts than we realize. In our work, you’ll learn to approach your thinking more intentionally. As your thoughts change, you’ll start to notice changes in how you feel, the choices you make, and how you move through your life. I help clients slow things down, make sense of what’s been difficult, and address the patterns that keep them feeling stuck. This often includes working through anxiety, depression, and the impact of trauma and past experiences. I also support women navigating life transitions, helping them feel more grounded and steady through change. My approach is thoughtful and practical, combining insight with tools you can use in your day-to-day life.

Welcome! Life is a journey and sometimes we just feel stuck. We encounter stress with work, relationships, school and life. Sometimes we are not sure what will help. I can teach you tools to help navigate through life's stressors so it does not feel so overwhelming.

Acceptance can be a powerful experience that shapes who we are. Reflect on a moment when you felt truly accepted and how it impacted your journey.

I provide LGBTQIA+ affirming care. You don’t need to educate me about your identity—I meet you where you are and work to honor your lived experience.

I offer treatment for Anxiety, Depression, Stress, Grief, Life Challenges, Adjustment, Sleep, and many other major challenges people experience.

This space is yours—a place where we can talk openly, without judgment, and work together to understand what’s going on and how to move forward in a way that feels right for you. In our first few sessions, we’ll get to know each other. I’ll ask some questions to learn about your background and goals, and you can ask me anything about how I work or what to expect from therapy. There's no pressure to share everything all at once—this is your process, and we’ll go at your pace. My goal is to help you feel safe, heard, and supported.
