Katherine Kohl, M.Ed., LPC

Licensed Therapist

I know finding the right therapist can feel intimidating, and my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, seen, and heard. I work with adults, teens, and children and have more than seven years of experience as a licensed therapist. Before transitioning into mental health, I worked as a pediatric nurse, and I have spent nearly 20 years working with children and young people in some capacity.

I believe one of my greatest strengths as a therapist is empathy. Taking the time to understand what someone is feeling is essential to building a strong therapeutic relationship. I want each person I work with to feel comfortable expressing themselves and processing their thoughts and emotions at their own pace. I also recognize the important role that culture, background, and individual experiences play in shaping who we are and what each person's path toward healing may look like.

I believe in the strength and resilience of every individual and am committed to supporting you throughout your journey toward healing, growth, and self-discovery. Ascend's whole-person care approach aligns with this philosophy by recognizing the connection between mental and physical well-being. By bringing therapy, psychiatry, and primary care together, we can provide more connected support while keeping your individual needs and goals at the center of your care.

I was unsure what to expect because I've never heard of Ascend before but was pleasantly surprised with the whole experience. Great communicators! Trauma informed and the accessibility and ease of the user interface was the cherry on top for me.

I did not know how to explain my problem and the Ascend team called and asked the right questions so I would not feel shame asking for help.

Absolutely lovely and professional every step of the way! Warm, friendly, kind, empathetic, and a great listener. I have anxiety with doctors and therapists but I feel so comfortable with everyone at Ascend Medical. Thank you!
