Licensed Mental Health Clinician & Content Writer

👋Hello! I'm Kate, a licensed mental health professional, and mental health writer. I love to write, and I write from experience, so my work is always original. ✍️Just like in my practice as a therapist, my content is informative, warm, empathetic, inclusive, and engaging. I am able to match a range of tones and I am always conscious of the words that I choose. 🛋After more than a decade in the health/mental health field, my areas of expertise include mood disorders, anxiety, trauma & PTSD, OCD, substance use disorder & recovery, perinatal mental health, and burnout. I am trained in several treatment modalities including mindfulness, CBT, ACT, MI and psychodynamic psychotherapy. 📊I currently serve a diverse clientele in San Francisco, and I was trained in the #3 ranked program in the United States, the University of California, Berkeley. I also have 5 years of experience conducting research in team culture, burnout, and patient engagement at UCSF, one of the leading research institutions in the country. ✔️This experience allows me to confidently research, clearly explain and bring to life any mental health topic. And you can count on my work being factual and accurate. 🙋‍♀️I'd love to write for you. You won't be disappointed! 🤝Please get in touch and we can explore whether I am a good fit. I look forward to connecting with you! 💬Testimonials: "I highly recommend Kate for any content writing or training development needs. Having worked with her on many projects, I can attest to her skill, competence, and warmth. She is a pleasure to collaborate with, is clear and communicative, and always goes above and beyond to create high-quality work. She is creative, thoughtful, and knowledgeable and always offers great suggestions to improve the project. She also has a knack for transforming complex or dry information into engaging and accessible material. She consistently surpasses expectations, and I would hire her again in a heartbeat." - Tom Bodenheimer, MD, MPH, Founding Director of the UCSF Center for Excellence in Primary Care "I had the great pleasure of working with Kate over the course of several years and cannot recommend her highly enough as a mental health content writer. Kate has that rare gift of deeply understanding complex medical or scientific information and being able to communicate in that in ways that are accessible and -- even more importantly, interesting to the lay audience. In a world increasingly inundated with misinformation, that is a crucial skill -- perhaps the most important one -- that healthcare professionals can harness. As a licensed mental health clinician, Kate demystifies mental health. And Kate is -- to top it off -- one of the most delightful people I've had the pleasure of working with!" -Rachel Willard-Grace, MPH, UCSF Department of Family and Community Medicine
