Katheryn Chaney

Katheryn Chaney, MSW, LCSW-S, RPT-S, is a dedicated Clinical Social Worker and Therapist committed to creating a supportive environment described as a 'soft place to land' for her clients. Understanding that when children are faced with challenges, it often impacts the entire family, she strives to cultivate a positive atmosphere where children feel accepted, valued, and safe. This nurturing environment allows young clients to express themselves naturally, even when they struggle to articulate their feelings, especially in the face of trauma and PTSD. As a Registered Play Therapist, she expertly helps children navigate their emotions and works closely with caregivers, offering guidance in the challenging and vital role of parenting. With two decades of experience specializing in children and families, Katheryn employs a strengths-based approach tailored to the unique needs of each individual or family. Her certification in trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and training in EMDR equip her to provide calm and stability in uncertain times. Katheryn believes that life's challenges are manageable when there is support, and she warmly invites families to seek help, ensuring a safe, judgment-free space to explore thoughts, fears, and aspirations for a brighter future.
