Katarina Blake, MHC-LP, MA

Welcome! I’m glad your journey has brought you here today.

I support adults navigating life’s emotional complexities — those who feel deeply, seek authentic relationships, and may be struggling with people-pleasing, chronic anxiety, family dynamics, or complex romantic or work situations. We work to help you reconnect with your inner voice and bring balance to your life.

Therapy with me goes beyond coping strategies to explore the roots of what keeps you stuck. Together, we uncover old patterns, emotional wounds, and relational dynamics so lasting change and self-understanding can take hold.

As a relational, emotion-focused therapist, I offer warmth, compassion, and collaboration. In a safe, supportive space, we explore patterns that hold you back and work toward greater clarity, self-compassion, and self-trust.

This may include inner child work, tending to attachment wounds, or identifying unhelpful relationship patterns. While grounded in talk therapy, my integrative approach incorporates mindfulness, parts work (like IFS), and somatic tools to support your nervous system — all through a trauma-informed lens.

I’m especially passionate about working with eldest daughters and sensitive souls, those who carry high expectations and are learning to care for themselves with the same compassion they give others. Therapy can help you reclaim your voice, soften your inner critic, and come home to yourself.

I’m wholeheartedly invested in every person I work with, creating a space where you feel seen, supported, and safe enough to access what’s been held inside. Together, we explore not only what hurts but what heals, uncovering the vitality, courage, and aliveness that have always been within you. Whether this is your first step into therapy or a return to yourself, I’ll walk with you as you rediscover your way home.

Personal:
My professional and personal experiences are intertwined, shaping the way I show up in the therapy room. Like many in their 20s and 30s, I spent a significant part of my own journey exploring holistic healing practices to find a deeper sense of alignment and connection with myself. I believe in the importance of investing in my own healing, which not only enriches my life but also informs the way I support my clients.
