Seattle-Based Psychotherapist

KATE DUFEK, LMHC

hello again.

Looking for a grounded witness and champion of your growth can be an intimate and tiresome task. Grueling as the search may be, these efforts in pursuit of healing are well worth it. Welcome!

I am a trauma-informed relational psychotherapist for folks ages 13 & up in Washington state. I work well with those who fear they’re “too sensitive”, creatives, chronic people pleasers, and folks are hard on themselves. Many of my clients seek out therapy as they navigate seasons of transition, feel a desire to grow deeper into themselves, or could use support around pursuing change.

By lending honest, and gentle curiosity towards all that you hold— in pattern, silence, and in body, I find that we can come to rediscover softness, connection and breath in places formerly marked by disconnection and pain. My hope is that together, we will help you will find a more integrated, flexible, and free way of being. If this sounds like the type of work you would like to begin, click below to schedule an initial appointment:

Commonly, I work with folks around:

  • Trauma and Abuse
