Katie Polykoff, LAPC, M.S.Ed

As a therapist, I am dedicated to helping others cultivate intentional connections. Connections within their brain/nervous system, connections within themselves, connection within their relationships, and their connection within their purpose/life experience.  I believe my client is the expert in their own life, and my role is to help them develop the tools and insight to trust that part of themselves. 

Often, we live in automatic patterns of behavior, thought, and synapse. Our communication, our reactions, our values, our beliefs, and even our own inner voice are sometimes not even curated from within ourselves. More often than not, they are patterns that served us very well at one point in our lives.

It is common to get stuck in what I like to call the "brain algorithm". In therapy, we recalibrate that algorithm through curiosity, compassion, self-exploration, insights, and psychoeducation. 

We have this one life experience. My purpose is to equip people with the tools they need to live in alignment with their values and goals.
