Kathleen Becker,
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist, LMSW
I believe life is both wonderful and challenging. During challenging times people often feel stuck - it's an awful place to be and finding someone to help you out of stuck can be of great comfort and assistance.
I provide compassionate, supportive therapy in a professional and comfortable environment. I explore thoughts, feelings and behaviors that cause people to become stuck and work on practicing new thoughts, feelings and behaviors to become "unstuck". Therapy is a collaborative and dynamic process and I enjoy working with a wide variety of individuals to assist them in getting the most out of their life.
I've worked over 20 years on inpatient psychiatric units and mental health clinics providing a wide variety of clients with competent psychotherapy. Having worked on inpatient psychiatric units, I have first hand experience with most psychiatric illnesses and insight into when a referral to a psychiatrist or inpatient treatment is necessary. I am also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy.

When it rains, it pours! Everyone has those stormy times when different areas of life feel overwhelming. Working with someone to make challenges manageable can bring down the stress and bring back some joy.
My goal is to help you achieve yours. Together, in a safe and focused setting, we will find the methods, tools, and skills that work for you.
I have been an educator for 25 years, working closely with diverse young children and families in crisis and healing from trauma. Having worked as in intern in an inpatient psychiatric unit, I have insight into psychiatric disorders and work well with doctors and other healthcare professionals. I am also trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy.
