About Kati
Hi friends! I am a single mom of 3 beautiful kids, with WAY too much experience in addiction and mental health! I am a child of 8, with genetic history of mental health issues, trauma, etc. I have a psychology degree and biology minor, but none that compares to life experience and wanting to talk with people and hear stories. I understand the inner workings of nature AND nurture. I also am working on my peer support certification in TX. I have two stickers in my wallet: Mental Health Matters, and Therapy is for Everyone. That sums it up! I am hear to LISTEN. I will not always have the answers. Right now it is about connection, understanding, and feeling heard and supported. I look forward to hearing what you have to share.
My Recovery Story
I have struggled with alcohol use since college and well beyond. I have completed inpatient rehabilitation 3 times, intensive outpatient programs twice, and have obtained certification as a recovery support peer specialist. Addiction has severely affected all aspects of my life, but I believe wholeheartedly in recovery, second chances, reducing shame specifically, and personal growth - all of which I try to apply to my personal life on a daily basis. Am I always successful? NO! I have relapsed several times, and definitely am no the poster child for perfect recovery, if there is such a thing. However, I have an amazing counselor and AA support system, along with a supportive family.
My Motivation To Help
I have extensive journeys personally, with family and friends, and professionally with the fields of mental health, addiction, recovery, eating disorders, depression and anxiety, parenting and divorce. I simply want to bring a sense of peace to those I encounter and support.
