Kate Payne Therapy

Therapy is a tool to reflect, learn, and process one's experiences to create a more fulfilling and authentic life worth living. I work with individuals and with couples seeking support for a variety of concerns. With over a decade of experience in providing therapy, I have honed in my approach as trauma-informed and strengths based. I also have spent many years of education and experience working with the LGBTQ+ communities.

I specialize in trauma therapy using EMDR and somatic experiencing. Much of the healing process in therapy is through the relationship we build together. I will bring my authentic self to each session while supporting your individual journey.

Additionally, I have many years of experience working with couples navigating a variety of challenges including intimacy and sexuality, conflicts, transition into parenthood, and working through mental health challenges.

I am licensed in Washington and California. I offer virtual sessions in WA and in-person or virtual sessions in CA. Please reach out for a free 15 minute consultation to see if we would be a good fit.

Individual Therapy and EMDR

Everyone deserves a space to feel heard, understood and to be fully authentic. Whether you’re looking for support in processing trauma, working through relationship problems, perinatal support, self-esteem building, or other issues you are working through, individual therapy might be a good fit.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a type of therapy that can help work through trauma and distressing events that are currently affecting your life. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to work through negative neural pathways with the intention of healing from trauma or other current dysregulation you’re experiencing. This can be used virtually or in person.

Couples Counseling

Having troubles in your relationship, looking for tools to enhance communication, or wanting support to address sensitive topics? Couples counseling can be useful for partners to use a dedicated time and place to talk about things that seem hard to resolve on your own or that you just can’t find the time to talk through. I have been working with couples for over 10 years and have found counseling to be a useful tool in addressing ongoing issues.

I am also a Prepare/Enrich Facilitator for Premarital Counseling support.

Clinical Supervision

I am a licensed Clinical Supervisor offering supervision to those seeking full licensure. This allows me to bring my education and experience to those just starting out or looking for ongoing support. Finding out who we are as therapists is an exciting part of the therapeutic work.
