Katie Murphy Hemenway, LPC

➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ Influenced by an intersectional, relational approach to therapy, my work is guided by the belief that individual healing is both personal and collective, and that tending to ourselves is part of how we build a more caring and conscious world. I believe this begins with how we relate to ourselves. Learning to navigate our own internal landscape creates the foundation for more authentic connections with others. “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” Carl Rogers, On Becoming a Person: A Therapist's View of Psychotherapy ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ Life can feel like it’s asking a lot - to keep moving, to stay strong, to make sense of things that don’t always add up. Therapy is a chance to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and notice what might be ready to shift. My approach is attentive, grounded, and shaped by what you need most in the moment. I bring warmth and directness, helping you make sense of your patterns while exploring new ways of being with yourself and others. Our sessions will likely be a mix of curiosity, humor, and deeper reflection. My work is rooted in compassion for your individual complexity and an intersectional understanding of systemic and cultural influences. Growth happens when we feel safe enough to be present in our discomfort and supported enough to stay with what we find. My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you can meet yourself with the care and trust you deserve. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖
