Kate Powers
I believe that the most profound healing happens in connection with others. I utilize a psychodynamic, client-centered approach which prioritizes connecting meaningfully with my clients on their own terms, and allowing my client's needs to drive the direction of therapy. I draw on my training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and family / couples therapy to enrich my work with individuals. I am a postgraduate Fellow at Clinical Alliance Services, LLC and the Psychodynamic Couple & Family Institute of New England.
I offer individual and couples therapy to adults of all ages and identities who have a range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship disruptions, trauma, grief, life transitions, identity and self-esteem. As a former sexual violence advocate and consent educator, I create safe containers for folks to grapple with experiences of sexual trauma.
I have a passion for working with queer clients and clients exploring alternative relationship structures like ethical non-monogamy and polyamory. I am committed to upholding an anti-oppressive and liberation framework in every encounter and feel that it is crucial to understand the role that systemic oppression plays in our lives.
