My Specializations

Working from experience and with compassion in mind, these are Katherine Wald’s specializations.

ADHD Coaching

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

A diagnosis of ADHD might feel overwhelming and scary at first. But there are many things that you can do to benefit and improve your quality of life. One of those things is learning about what ADHD is and what it is not, and also identifying how it is impacting your life so that you can better advocate for yourself.

The goal of ADHD coaching is to help you to embrace and accept yourself for who you are and what makes you as an individual so special. You will also become equipped with the practical skills to handle everyday tasks and challenges. I look forward to helping you embrace being different and accepting yourself for who you are and what makes you as an individual so special.

Chronic Illness

A chronic or long-term illness means having to adjust to the demands of the illness and the therapy used to treat the condition. There may be additional stresses, since chronic illness might change the way you live, see yourself and relate to others.

Together we can work to help you confront your diagnosis and utilize active coping strategies. This will, in turn, allow you to be more well-adjusted and feel more life satisfaction. These strategies can allow you to feel empowered and regain a sense of control.

EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. EMDR is a highly effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders.

PTSD

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

PTSD is a mental health disorder that can develop in some individuals that have been exposed to or witnessed a life-threatening traumatic event. It’s quite common to be upset or have trouble sleeping after experiencing such an event, however, many people’s symptoms improve after a few short weeks.

There are healthy ways to cope, move through, and process your trauma. You can take back control of your life and you can learn to trust again. Together we can embark on your healing journey.

Depression

Depression can be debilitating, but it is treatable. Let me help you to address the cognitive distortions, disordered neurochemistry, and unresolved loss and pain that might be contributing to your low mood. I find that a combination of cognitive/behavioral and affective interventions can be very effective.

Let me show you ways to cope, manage, and ultimately treat this debilitating condition so that you rediscover the light inside yourself.

Anxiety

Anxiety disorders are a group of mental illnesses that cause constant and overwhelming anxiety and fear. The excessive anxiety can make you avoid work, school, family get-togethers, and other social situations that might trigger or worsen your symptoms.It can be challenging and frustrating to live with an anxiety disorder. The constant worry and fear can make you feel tired and scared.

With proper care and treatment, I can help to teach you how to manage your symptoms and thrive.
