KathRyn Scharn, MSW, LICSW
I believe that every person has the capacity to heal, grow, and create meaningful change in their life. At the same time, I recognize that life can bring circumstances that are painful, complicated, and outside of our control. Therapy is not about pretending those challenges do not exist, but about finding ways to navigate them with greater understanding, confidence, and support.
I specialize in working with OCD, anxiety, trauma, and life stressors, and I work with children, adolescents, and adults. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized to each person's unique experiences and needs. I strive to create a space where clients feel heard, understood, and accepted while also learning practical tools to manage difficult thoughts, emotions, and experiences.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety or OCD, processing past experiences, navigating a major life transition, or simply feeling overwhelmed by what life has brought your way, you do not have to navigate it alone. My role is to support you, teach you skills that can help you move forward, and walk alongside you throughout your journey—while respecting that you are the expert on your own life.
"You cannot always choose what life brings you, but you can choose how you move through it—and you don’t have to move through it alone."
