Kathryn Starratt

I am Kathryn Starratt and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in New Hampshire. I have over twenty years of experience working with a variety of people, including adults, couples, families, adolescents, children and groups. My professional growth has been advised by my work in Emergency Services, Community Mental Health and work with families formed from adoption and foster care. Whether working with families or individuals, I provide a non-judgmental, caring, safe and respectful environment for individuals to find their authentic self. I have a firmly held belief that each person is a thoroughly unique being with potential for remarkable growth. I believe in a person-centered approach and have time, and time again, seen the resilience of spirit in people who have honored me with their trust and vulnerability. I believe that 100% of people could benefit from counseling at some point in their life. Traumatic events, loss, relationship issues, work stress, family conflict, and life transitions can be just some of the shared experiences in life that cause stress, anxiety and depression. How we experience these events is unique to us as individuals. Therapeutic approaches can include strength-based modalities, cognitive behavioral approaches, solution focused therapy, psychoeducation, trauma focused therapy as well as life experience informed common sense. And one should never ignore the benefits of generous amounts caring and humor. I am eager to journey with you on your path of discovery and healing!
