Hi! I’m so happy you’re here. I know how hard it is to take the first step of reaching out for support. My name is Katherine, you can call me Kate. I am both the founder of Monarch Therapy LLC and a Clinical Social Worker. I received both my Bachelors and Masters degree in Social Work from Western Michigan University here in Kalamazoo. My specialization is in trauma, and I am trained in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT). I often incorporate a variety of different treatment modalities into sessions depending on the unique needs and preferences of the client, however I tend to stick to TF-CBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness and aspects of Internal Family Systems (IFS) most frequently. I primarily work with individuals ages 16 and older, however I do accept younger adolescents on a limited basis. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to schedule a consultation to see if we will be a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!

I truly believe it is an honor to walk alongside my clients through change and through life. My goal is to facilitate a space that is non-judgmental, empathetic, and safe for sharing. My practice is person-centered, and based on client goals and timeline.

I specialize in the treatment of substance use disorder, and have expertise in treating depression, anxiety, grief and loss, family issues, and trauma. I utilize a range of therapeutic interventions to help my clients create meaningful, sustainable change in their daily lives.
