Meeting you where you are. Honoring where you've been.

Katherine So Dachtler

MSW, PhD(c), LCSW, LICSW (She/Her)

  • My approach is trauma-sensitive, holistic, and built around you. I draw on EMDR, ACT, Trauma-Focused CBT, CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Structural Family Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction to find what works best for where you are. I specialize in adoption, identity, belonging, life transitions, and trauma.
