Katherine Box, LCSW
Therapy is a journey toward healing at a time in your life when you may be seeking change, consultation or guidance to manage this change. The desire for this change may come from experiences created by choices from yourself, others or circumstances beyond your control. My approach views therapy not just as treatment, but as an essential journey across all aspects of life. In this process, I see my role as providing focused teaching, guidance, and expert consultation to help you gain insight, reprocess experiences, and build skills for lasting resilience and growth. I look forward to meeting you!
