Katie Maher, LCSW

Welcome! My name is Katie (She/Her) I created this practice with the intent to create a safe, warm, and inclusive space for children, families, and adults to aid in their healing and growth. I am fueled by a passion for providing personalized and compassionate mental health care. My goal is to create a safe environment for individuals, children, and families seeking support and self-discovery. I aim to build deep connections with children, families and adults to help them navigate life's challenges and foster positive change.

My Education & Credentials

I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor at University of Washington. I attended Portland State University where I graduated with a Masters in Social Work with a specialization in children, youth, and families and integrated care.

My experience in social services and in the community, has informed my current practice. I have experience working in residential settings for children and adolescents. I have been dedicated to working in early childhood and have been involved in Head Start settings. I have experience working in complex systems including advocating for children in court as Court Appointed Special Advocate and as an intern at a pediatric clinic. My passion lies with working with children, adults, and families that have been impacted by trauma and mental health. This led me to work in community mental health for over five years as a practicing therapist to improve children and families ability to effectively function in the community.
