Katie Hughes, MSW, LICSW
Licensed Independent clinical social worker
Whether you’re experiencing depression, anxiety, fear, grief, or even just emptiness, these feelings can keep you from living the life you want-–the authentic life you truly deserve. I imagine that you are here because you feel stuck in these feelings right now, and you're not sure the best way through them. You are looking for a way to feel better and to start taking steps toward the life you want to live.
Asking for support from a therapist to work through these challenges is a brave step. Through a therapeutic relationship based on trust, respect, and lack of judgment, I will help you examine the experiences, behaviors, and beliefs that have put blocks in your path.
In my work, I support individuals (ages 16+) in addressing a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, substance abuse, life transitions, self esteem, and trauma. I have specialized training and interest in working with people struggling with substance abuse and codependency. Because each person is different, I believe in using a variety of techniques that center the client’s needs and goals above all else.
I believe that the work of therapy, while oftentimes scary and challenging, is ultimately wonderful and transformative. While no two sessions with me will ever be exactly the same, at the core of my work is a deep-held belief in the strength and resilience of the human spirit. I believe in art, creativity, and humor to help get us through. And I definitely don’t believe there is one perfect way to do life. All of us are just trying to do the best we can, but sometimes we need a little help and support along the way. I would be honored to provide that support to you.
