Life can be difficult. But we are wired to heal.

My work centers on helping people heal from trauma, loss, and life’s difficult experiences.

Using EMDR, developmental therapy, and family systems work, I support clients in discovering their strengths, restoring balance, and creating new possibilities for living.

If you’re ready to take a step toward healing, you don’t have to do it alone.

Collaboration is critical to a successful therapeutic relationship and outcome.

I strongly believe in co-creating an understanding of what is happening for the client, as well as an agreed-upon treatment plan. Approaching our stories and histories with curiosity and compassion is the key to appreciating the whole person. As a result, attention is paid holistically to the cognitive, emotional, and somatic aspects of experience.

Dedicating exquisite attention to presenting issues and current symptoms allows for a deeper understanding of what has happened or what keeps happening for us.

And our capacity to attend to ourselves and heal does not need to occur alone!

“Katie Quinlan is in the truest sense my angel. I have always struggled with connecting with mental health professionals but from the first moment of meeting her she felt like the nurturing caregiver I have always hoped for. Katie is energetic, fun, curious, caring, and patient. She’s one of those rare people that radiates love for what they do, and she’s just about perfect at it.”
