Quiet Oak Counseling

If you tend to show up as capable and “doing fine,” yet feel anxious, worn down, or disconnected beneath the surface, you’re not alone. Some people arrive with a clear sense of what they want to work on, while others aren’t quite sure where to begin—either way, slowing down often allows deeper themes to emerge. Therapy here is a calm, supportive space where your guard can soften, emotions can surface without pressure, and you don’t have to perform or have it all figured out. We work at a thoughtful pace, helping you feel steadier, clearer, and more connected to yourself over time. Hi, I’m Kathryn. I have over 10 years of experience working with college students and adults who feel caught in cycles of anxiety, stress, or emotional overwhelm. My approach is calm, empathic, and collaborative, with the depth and pace of therapy shaped around your values, goals, and emotional readiness. In our work together, sessions often focus on gently uncovering what’s been keeping you stuck—whether that’s unhelpful beliefs, patterns rooted in past experiences, or a nervous system that’s been on high alert for too long. We work to release what no longer serves you while building practical skills that support clarity, self-trust, and steadiness in daily life. If this resonates, I invite you to reach out by phone or email to see whether working together feels like a good fit. I’m glad you’re here.
