Kaitlyn P., LCSWA

If you’ve found your way here, chances are life feels especially heavy right now. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like you’ve lost your footing. Maybe you’ve been navigating change after change—some expected, some not—and you're just tired of holding it all together. Or maybe you're feeling stuck in a relationship or phase of life that no longer feels right, but you don’t quite know what to do next.

Let me first say: you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself.

In my work as a therapist, I walk alongside women like you—women who are strong, thoughtful, and also human—who sometimes just need a safe, supportive place to sort through the messiness of life. I use a collaborative and compassionate approach, always grounded in respect for who you are and where you come from. I work with you, not on you.

My style blends a variety of therapeutic tools tailored to your unique needs. We might draw from mindfulness practices to help you stay grounded in the present, cognitive-behavioral strategies to shift unhelpful thought patterns, solution-focused conversations to clarify your goals, or explore deeper parts of your inner world through Internal Family Systems (IFS). I also bring a culturally aware lens to our work together, honoring how your identity and lived experiences shape your story and your healing. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach—just what supports you best.

If you’re motivated for change, open to self-reflection, and ready to explore new ways of being, I’d be honored to work with you. Together, we’ll create a space where you can show up as your full self—messy, brilliant, hurting, hopeful—and begin the work of healing and growth. You deserve support that truly fits where you are and honors where you’re going.

Warmly,
Your Future Therapist

My Experience

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate. I obtained my Bachelor of Psychology at UNC Greensboro. I also earned my Master’s of Social Work at North Carolina A&T. I have experience working with individuals of vulnerable communities. I am passionate and dedicated to working with Black women and people with marginalized identities.

With CBT, Mindfulness, Somatic techniques, and Solution-Focused therapies, I use an intersectional theoretical framework to ensure I am approaching therapy with cultural awareness. Overall, my ideal client is someone who is motivated for change, open-minded, and willing to put in the work for self-reflection and growth. 

When I’m not in Therapist Mode, I’m…

Spending time with friends and family, binge-watching reality TV, trying new restaurants in Charlotte, cooking a recipe I found online, browsing in TJ Maxx and HomeGoods, or playing video games (Sims 4 is my favorite!).
