Therapy that feels human. Change that feels possible.


Sometimes the people who look like they're holding it all together are carrying the heaviest load. You're the one everyone leans on. You keep pushing through, checking the boxes, and taking care of everyone else, but underneath it all you're anxious, exhausted, overwhelmed, or wondering why life feels so much harder than it seems.
If any of that resonates, you're in the right place.
Down to Earth Therapy offers individual therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, chronic illness, and life transitions.

In-person therapy in Raleigh, North Carolina and online therapy throughout North Carolina, California, and Illinois.

Maybe you've been...

  • Holding everything together while quietly feeling overwhelmed.

  • Overthinking conversations, decisions, or what might happen next.
  • Noticing that experiences from your past are still showing up in your present.
  • Grieving someone or something important and wondering how you're supposed to move forward.
  • Feeling stuck in the same relationship patterns, even when you understand where they come from.
  • Going through a major life change and realizing you don't quite feel like yourself anymore.
Whatever brought you here, you don't have to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

Therapy that feels like a conversation.

Our approach is warm, collaborative, and down to earth.


Therapy with us isn't about sitting in silence while you do all the talking. It's a conversation. We ask thoughtful questions, offer honest observations, gently challenge you when needed, and help you connect the dots between your past and present.

Together, we'll make sense of what's been weighing on you, understand the patterns keeping you stuck, and build practical tools you can actually use in everyday life.

Therapy isn't about having everything figured out. It's about having someone beside you as you figure it out, with support that feels human and change that feels possible.

 

How we can help

Not sure which fits? That's okay. You don't need to diagnose yourself before reaching out.


 

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

 
For when you know something needs to change, even if you're still figuring out exactly what that is. A one-on-one space to slow down, understand yourself more clearly, and work through the patterns, relationships, transitions, or pressures that have been weighing on you.

Hi, I'm Katie (she/her)
I'm a licensed therapist and the founder of Down to Earth Therapy. I work with thoughtful, capable adults who are often very good at taking care of everyone else and are realizing they need somewhere they can put some of that weight down, too.
I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine relationship. I’m not a blank slate, and you won't be left wondering what I'm thinking. I show up with curiosity, warmth, honesty, humor when it fits, and a willingness to sit with the hard stuff alongside you.
My goal is to help you understand yourself more clearly; your patterns, your reactions, and the parts of you that may have been working overtime just to keep things going, while creating change that feels realistic, sustainable, and true to your life.

Getting Started Doesn't Have to be Complicated.

01 — Schedule a free consultation

We'll spend a few minutes talking about what's bringing you to therapy, what you're looking for, and any questions you have.

02 — See if it feels like a fit

Therapy is personal. The consultation gives both of us an opportunity to make sure working together feels right.

03 — Begin therapy

If we decide to move forward, I'll walk you through the next steps so you know exactly what to expect.

Wondering about cost or insurance?

Down to Earth Therapy is an out-of-network practice. Many clients use their out-of-network benefits to help reduce the cost of therapy, and we partner with Thrizer to make the process as simple and transparent as possible.
