Educational & Behavioral Consultant

Kathy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 25 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults affected by trauma, anxiety, depression, autism, and inattention. She obtained her Master’s Degree in Social Work from UW-Madison and subsequently guest lectured and supervised graduate degree students in their clinical placement.

Kathy incorporates brain-based, trauma-informed, and developmentally-sensitive approaches in her practice, emphasizing movement, relaxation strategies, dramatic play, and cognitive coping. She also consults with parents, preschools, and infant-toddler programs to collaboratively develop strategies to support social and emotional development.

In addition, awareness of and respect for neurodiversity is a critical component of her work.
