Hi there!

I’m Katie Dutcher, Associate Marriage & Family Therapist, Qualified Teacher of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), and Certified Mindful Outdoor Guide. I am also in the process of being certified as a Holden Qigong Teacher.

I offer virtual therapy for adults, teens, and couples throughout California, and eco-therapy outdoors in the Monterey area. I am the host of Flourish and Bloom, an online library of resources for mindfulness, self-discovery, and greater well-being.

 

Approach

As a teacher and as a therapist, I offer a presence that is sensitive, calming, compassionate, and accepting, allowing people to be seen and understood just as they are. My in-depth knowledge of mindfulness principles and my lived experience and reflection in working with grief, anxiety, and uncertainty allow me to offer insights and empathy.

The resources and teaching that I offer invite us to cultivate self-compassion, self-worth, self-love, and learn to live more authentically in the present moment, feeling grounded, balanced, and at ease as we are. We flourish, meeting challenges with grace and resilience.
