Dr. Kathleen King is a dedicated psychologist specializing in supporting adults and couples to cultivate and nurture healthy and fulfilling relationships. Many individuals who seek her guidance experience significant pain in their relationships. They may feel unsupported, struggle with effective communication, or find it challenging to connect and feel safe with a partner due to past trauma, anxiety, or depression. Additionally, some clients grapple with relationship dynamics when their partner is on the autism spectrum. Dr. King fosters a warm, safe, and validating environment, empowering clients to explore these intricate challenges, gain deeper self-understanding, and develop essential new skills. Her therapeutic approach is client-centered, meeting individuals at their unique point of need. Dr. King recognizes the importance of trust and vulnerability, dedicating time to cultivate this essential foundation. Clients progress at their own pace, equipped with the knowledge, support, and acceptance necessary for transformative change when they are ready. Those working with Dr. King also have the benefit of engaging in animal-assisted therapy, complemented by her co-therapist, a delightful Havanese named Rupert, who has been a certified therapy dog since he was just 7 months old. In addition to relationship counseling, Dr. King offers specialized treatments such as hypnotherapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), along with comprehensive adult psychological assessment services.
