Specialties: Individual, Couples
My name is Kate Peabody (she/her/hers) and I specialize in working with adults and couples presenting with PTSD and trauma, toxic relationship issues, and life transitions. I believe that while looking to our past cannot change what has already happened, it certainly can guide us in creating a better future. I believe that through creating a therapeutic environment that fosters secure attachment, my clients will be able to grow into their authentic selves in their daily lives.
I am warm, direct, and sometimes humorous in my approach, and I help clients build upon their own personal narrative of their lives to help them have a deeper understanding of their past, present, and future.
I studied Marriage and Family Therapy at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, and I have a systems-based, eclectic approach to therapy, which allows me to tailor my treatment to each client, their inner and outer world, and presenting issues. I utilize Narrative therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Relational Life Therapy, and Bowenian Family Therapy as my main theoretical approaches. I like to take a look at my clients whole story, rather than jumping to pathologize them based on what is initially bothering them.
My favorite thing about being a therapist is noticing the small wins and positive changes (and major ones too!) that my clients make in between sessions, as well as collaboratively uncovering the deep insights they discover about themselves, their relationships, and their lives. In short, I love an “I did it!” moment and a “My mind is blown” moment. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and pets, thrifting for vintage treasures, and working on whatever artistic hobby-of-the-month I pick back up.
