Thank you for stopping by my page. I'm Katie, a 29-year-old woman living in California, here to help those who are struggling. Life is incredibly difficult. You and I know the immense challenge it can be just get up out of bed each morning. Living with mental health struggles can feel like being in a constant warzone. Except we never enlisted in the war! And yet here you are, trying your best each day to hold on and survive. I want you to take a moment to recognize how strong and brave you are for just being here right, right now. 

I believe in treating everyone with compassion, love, empathy, kindness, and unconditional positive regard. Our chats are a sacred, safe space where you can feel comfortable sharing anything that's on your mind. There's no pressure, and you can stay for as long as you'd like. 

My background is in social work and crisis intervention. I have professional experience working for a crisis hotline servicing those who struggle with suicidal feelings and other mental health struggles. Working as a crisis hotline agent has enabled me to learn the valuable skills of active listening and empathy. I'm very grateful to be able to have helped many struggling people.

I have personal experience living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), delusions, Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), and eating disorders of various kinds. I also have experience living and struggling with shame, guilt, grief, and addiction. While I'm not in your exact shoes, I know how excruciatingly difficult it can be living with mental health issues. I'm here because I want to relieve some of the difficulties by being a virtual shoulder to lean on. I hope to make a positive difference in your life by gently showing you that your life is worth living and your story is worth hearing. You deserve someone who will give you their full attention and care.

Feel free to message me anytime. I hope we can connect.
