✨Welcome Katie ✨

Katie is the newest member of the Saplings team. She comes with a background in nature-based education and years of experience as a preschool teacher. She has a special interest in emotional regulation and emotional intelligence, and loves using play-based therapy to help kids connect to others and themselves. When she isn’t at the clinic, you can find her out on a hike, reading or writing fairytales, or enjoying quality time with her family.

We are excited to have you Katie 😊

Just a reminder that we will be in our new space starting on Monday. We are still in the same building on the second floor. At the top of the stairs turn left instead of right and we are the first door on the left. We are in Suite O! 🌲 ✨
