Katie Lynne Bazzoni LPC

I am a builder. Not in the same literal architectural manner as the generations of family members that have gone before me but rather in a relational context – building up individuals, relationships, families, and communities. I am passionate about coming alongside you and joining in your pursuits for increased health and wellness, development of continual insight and self-awareness, and the desire to cultivate deeper connection and satisfaction in relationships.

Through the years, I have been honored to witness the healing power of therapy when established within the context of mutual respect, trust, intentionality, curiosity, and emotional safety. As a psychotherapist, I am committed to demonstrating in action and in word that you are seen, known, accepted, worthy of care and support, and capable of leading the life that you want.

This is what I think…

I have come to believe that more often than not, our problems are interpersonal in nature and therefore relationships are the catalyst for change. Through our collaborative therapeutic work, I will meet you where you are at and together we will design your treatment plan tailored specifically for you.
Session by session we will determine what is needed in the moment and explore thoughts, behaviors, emotions, patterns of relationships, fears, and anything else that may be causing distress.

We can sort through it together.

Together we will sort through the messiness of life and engage in honest self-evaluation of what is and is not working for you. You can feel resilient and better equipped to navigate life’s uncertainties.

Emotions can be experienced and processed without fear or judgment.

In times of confusion, we will work towards clarity and understanding.

In the areas that you feel “stuck”, you will be empowered to elicit change.

It is possible to improve your quality of life!

I encourage you to invest in yourself and trust the process.

Take the next step.

Let’s build together.

Catherine Johnston LPC Associate

Sometimes life becomes a series of survival strategies: managing anxiety, carrying grief, navigating trauma, or trying to keep relationships from falling apart.

I work with stuck nervous systems and relational knots. Many of my clients understand their patterns but still feel unable to change them. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what is happening beneath the surface, and find a way forward that feels more connected and alive.

My approach is warm, collaborative, trauma-informed, and grounded in family systems theory and interpersonal neurobiology. I pay attention to the whole picture: your inner world, your relationships, your history, and the patterns that once helped you survive.

I work with adults, couples, and families navigating relationship distress, family estrangement, co-parenting, religious trauma, autoimmune disorders, grief, identity, and neurodivergence. I also draw from somatic practices, mindfulness, nature-based therapy, and creative approaches.

You don’t have to untangle everything at once.

We can start with the knot in front of us.

At some point in your life, you may feel like you’re moving through the world without quite belonging to it. You might be meeting expectations and carrying responsibilities that look manageable from the outside, yet inside everything feels heavier than it should. Many of the people I work with describe this quiet misalignment, a stretched nervous system, relationships that feel harder to navigate, or a career that no longer fits who they’re becoming.

I understand high‑pressure roles and the courage it takes to reimagine your life, especially when you’ve spent years pushing through or adapting.

I specialize in supporting adults and couples facing burnout, high sensitivity, career transitions, and relationship communication challenges. When life moves fast or demands too much, it can leave you overwhelmed, stuck in stress loops, or disconnected from each other and your own clarity.

In our work together, we explore what’s happening internally: the signals your mind and body are sending, the patterns influencing your relationships and choices, and the parts of you that may be holding too much.

Rooted in the belief that growth and healing stem from feeling seen and valued, I bring a genuine style, collaborative process, and supportive space to reconnect with yourself, explore what no longer fits, and imagine a more authentic and sustainable way forward.
