Helping Women Transform
Anxiety into Awakening
Welcome
I’m so glad you’re here.
It shows you’re listening to what is asking for your attention.
Perhaps your body is holding too much tension from all the rushing. Your mind is exhausted from carrying the mental load. The voice within shames and blames you to do something about it—while judging you when you don’t.
You feel so caught up in the busyness of taking care of everything and everyone, you’ve lost your spark. Your connection to who you really are.
You may be stuck in a relationship that feels disconnected, and stale, as your true needs and wants aren’t voiced. You wonder how you got to this place.
You long to feel alive again, creative, and awakened to a more meaningful life.
We all experience anxiety, transition, resistance, and stuckness in our lives. What if these are opportunities to awaken? I think we’re called to therapy when we know there are parts of us ready to die, so something else can be reborn–the most aligned, authentic, and vibrant self.
What if there is nothing wrong with you, it’s just you haven’t felt safe enough within your body and had the space and support to reimagine your life. To become the next version of yourself.
This is where being open to support can be a game-changer. It’s an opportunity to let yourself receive professional support, an experienced ear, and an open and compassionate heart as you navigate feelings and untangle all the parts of you.
I believe connection heals. Feeling safe with the right guide is how the deep work happens, so we can collaborate to create access to all that you truly are, and you can move forward with confidence, purpose, and freedom.
I specialize in helping women overcome anxiety, build confidence, and move forward with purpose and freedom.
Having a roadblock with your relationship or career? In a life transition? Or are you eager to explore deeper issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and unhealthy patterns that keep you from feeling a sense of peace or ability to slow down and be present? Let's create lasting shifts together; new stories that are better suited for you.
I love supporting burned-out caregivers who want to prioritize themselves without guilt, creatives who lost their spark and struggle with follow-through, adult daughters of difficult mothers, those grappling with death or dying with either themselves or someone they love, women impacted by infidelity, moms who keep losing their cool with their kids, and seekers learning to trust themselves more fully while embodying a more meaningful sense of purpose in their lives.
I am now excited to offer my specialty service of ketamine-assisted-psychotherapy (KAP). I believe psychedelics can be a powerful tool to facilitate deep transformation, and when specifically combined with therapy, can help create lasting change.
hi, I’m Kate
I’m a licensed psychotherapist and coach for women. I show up as my real self in each session because I know how important it is to trust and relate to your therapist. It’s also a place where you can be your real self. A break from having to hold it all together in a world that asks so much of you.
I believe healing can be fun. I will laugh, smile, curse and cry with you, as we turn towards all the parts of you with curiosity and care. I want you to look forward to our sessions, and share with me your wins. We will talk about your life–past, present and future, so you can understand all the different parts of you, and figure out how to feel safe and courageous to create your life the way you want it.
I know firsthand that therapy works, and I am genuinely invested in every client I work with. My approach is collaborative because I believe you have incredible wisdom within you that is here to guide you through this, but it gets blocked by trauma and wounds from your past. We will work together to unblock all that, so you can feel connected to yourself again and those you care about. At the end of the day, you just want to feel better and have a therapist who gets it, and I get that.

I offer in person Ketamine-Assisted-Therapy (KAP) in Brevard, NC. I believe psychedelics can be an extremely useful tool in one's healing journey, specifically when combined with therapy. While ketamine therapy and psychotherapy are both effective independently, there is a substantial synergistic effect when the two are combined. KAP allows you to take full advantage of the neuroplasticity and perspective shifts that come with the medicine, integrating lessons learned and developing strategies to keep healing and enact more positive behaviors.
KAP is a promising novel therapy for relieving symptoms from depression, anxiety, PTSD, as well as childhood developmental trauma. Research from top universities show entering into an “altered-state of consciousness” can help:
Relieve depressed/anxious thoughts, feelings, behaviors Aid in forgiveness, grief & loss, processing past traumas
Heal from inherited family trauma
Grow self-love, self-compassion
Foster creativity, spirituality, purpose and drive
Clients say, “it’s as if the cobwebs are cleared” and report:
Less fear, chronic stress/fatigue/pain less addictive behaviors with food, alcohol, cannabis, media
More meditation, yoga, exercise, healthy eating
Taking risks in career, community, ending toxic relationships
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
Individual Coaching
These sessions occur both online and in person. Are you looking for support on your journey to feeling more peaceful and present, stop overthinking and trust yourself? I specialize in guiding women from feeling overwhelmed and burned out to embodying a sense of ease and flow.
Ongoing support can make or break your experience of getting unstuck from the patterns that keep you from feeling confident and free. In coaching, I will collaborate with you, to help you get clear on your blind spots, identify what is getting in the way, and practice ways to feel more calm and centered so you can take the risks of living, feel safe to show up as your true self in relationships, social settings, work, and kinder to yourself when you look in the mirror.
Using a somatic attachment and parts work approach, I will create a compassionate space for you to be your authentic self and experience the full potential of your life. I meet you exactly where you are, and we will move forward together at a pace that feels right for you. I remind everyone: there are no quick fixes, but when you do the inner work, you will experience the outer results.
For coaching clients only, email support will keep you motivated and inspired. I will celebrate your wins and new insights, and provide support in between sessions to help remove any limiting beliefs or roadblocks that may come up along the way.

The investment is $150 for a 60 minute therapy session. Interested in longer sessions feel free to email me. It has probably been costing you quite a bit to not do this work, to not change, and to not get expert help at this time. The value of getting help when you need it most can not only impact your life, but that of your family’s, marriage, career and your long term health.If this feels like a fork-in-the-road moment, imagine having support through this and what is on the other side of this? Let’s discover it together.

Yes. I have a handful of private coaching sessions slots available.
If you are interested in learning about the difference between therapy and coaching, and if this may be a good fit for you, please contact me for more information. -
No. Insurance companies usually require a mental health diagnosis and will often determine the type of treatment and duration of services allowed for a specific diagnosis. I don’t want to be limited, nor want my clients to feel limited in these ways. In order to use insurance, a client’s claim reveals personal information that could affect their employment. I believe your health and wellness is your business.
Upon your request however, I can provide you with a special statement —referred to as a superbill— for you to submit for reimbursement to your insurance provider. I make no guarantees about the level of reimbursement you will receive from your insurance company.
I suggest you contact your insurance company, either online or via the member services number located on the back of your insurance card, to ask questions about out of network coverage as they pertain to your plan so that you can make an informed decision before beginning therapy.

Let’s talk about the investment you are making in your life. It has probably been costing you quite a bit to not do this work, to not change, and to not get expert help at this time. We can’t see our own blindspots, and we all have them. So being offered a different perspective on your situation and what you may not have considered can be very beneficial.
The value of getting help when you need it most can not only impact your life, but that of your family’s, marriage, career and your long term health. It takes courage to be vulnerable and invest in yourself like this, yet offers long-lasting benefits and support, giving you the tools you need to break detrimental patterns, face the challenge with tools you will learn, and feel better in your relationships and in your own body and mind. It’s your turn to take care of yourself in a way that will support you in the long run. If this feels like a fork-in-the-road moment, imagine having support through this and what is on the other side of this? Let’s discover it together. -
Yes. I love the benefits of counseling without the commute and in the comfort of home!
It has certainly become more popular since the pandemic and enhances safety by decreasing risks of contact. Yet it also can allow you to feel a greater sense of support while doing this deeper work in your own home, save money on gas, and even have your favorite pet nearby. There is research that shows it to be just as effective as traditional therapy in the office. There is also increased anonymity and confidentiality, as well as being able to meet even while you’re on vacation or out of town. -
To begin, choose your appointment time. You can either email me at katehannontherapy@gmail.com, call me at (#415-857-2501).

In the United States, online therapy is still relatively new as far as licensing and regulation goes. Each state has its own rules. I may provide therapy online to anyone within the state of North Carolina. As a coach however, I can see everyone else across all 50 states and internationally.
Please note, while counseling and coaching overlap, they are not the same thing. We will discuss your particular needs and see what would be the best fit for you.Upon scheduling your first appointment, you will be sent some forms to complete before your session. These forms will provide me with some information about you, and give you an idea of what it is like to work with me.
When you arrive we will:
• Go over the forms you filled out
• Talk about what brought you to counseling
• Establish our goals
• Discuss your history, as well as any contributing factors related to your therapy or coaching goals
• If all goes well, we will then decide how often we will meet
For the following sessions your job would be to:
• Bring the material you want to work on
• Discuss anything that came up after the last time we met
• Talk about current events happening in your life
• Report progress -
• By deepening your understanding of issues at hand
• Coming up with clear strategies of how to deal with challenges you are facing
• Identifying some things you can do outside of therapy to support your process
Keep in mind that therapy is rarely a quick fix, but rather a rich process that requires time and patience. The more actively you participate in this process, the greater the results.
