Kaitlin Rooney
I'm Kaitlin, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who's here to bring a sassy twist to the world of therapy. I earned my Master's Degree from Argosy University, and let me tell you, I've got the expertise to back up my fabulousness. But that's not all—I also hold a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from St. Cloud State University, because, well, understanding the human mind is my jam.
In the therapy room, I rock a variety of different lenses, all focused on exploring your unique experiences within this wild thing we call life. With my certification in Accelerated Resolution Therapy and training in integrative and experiential approaches (including the super cool animal-assisted psychotherapy and artistic interventions), I'll shake up your world and help you see things in a whole new light. Oh, and did I mention I'm a fierce ally to the LGBQIA+ community and have experience working with transgender teens? Yeah, I'm all about celebrating diversity and creating a safe space for everyone.
Let's not forget my time in the United States Navy—I've got firsthand knowledge of the military and veterans' unique family life, environment, and struggles. That means I'll understand your challenges like nobody else. Empathy? Check. Compassion? Double check. I bring it all to the table.
My areas of interest? Well, they're as diverse as my essential oil and tincture collection! I'm all about helping you navigate grief and loss, master those parenting skills, iron out those parent-child relationship difficulties, and kick relationship conflict to the curb. Adolescent behavior and development? Bring it on. Trauma and anxiety? We'll tackle them head-on. Communication difficulties? Say no more. And guess what? I'm a pro at holistic approaches to healing, attachment-related issues, life transitions, and stress management. Basically, if you've got a challenge, I've got a sassy solution.
When I'm not slaying in the therapy room, you'll find me jet-setting around the globe, basking in the salty air near the ocean, cultivating my green thumb in the garden, and living it up with my fabulous squad of family and friends. I'm all about embracing alternative interventions and wellness practices because, let's face it, life's too short for the ordinary.
So, if you're ready to spice up your therapy game and embark on a transformative journey, buckle up, darling. I'm here to guide you with sass, style, and a whole lot of empowerment. Let's conquer the world together!"
