I've known Kathy for over five years and have personally seen her do amazing work with couples who were struggling. She's supported these couples in working through their communication and connection distress with grace and compassion. Kathy's personal and professional values around equity and diversity make her a particularly good choice for partners looking for a therapist who understands and centers the uniqueness of existing in an interracial or BIPOC relationship. I can confidently and wholeheartedly recommend Kathy to all couples looking to repair their bond.
