Welcome
My name is Kathryn Crabb. I’m a psychotherapist in Washington state, and I’d love to talk with you about how we can work together to transform your life.
All of us, including you, were born with a core self that’s vibrant, inviolable, and indomitable. It’s still there inside, waiting patiently for each of us to work through the layers of difficulties, frustrations, and self-doubt that have accumulated over the years.
When we do that difficult work, we’re able to live more and more from the core self and less and less from the wounded, defended place so many of us have adopted out of painful necessity.
It’s my life’s work to walk with people through the difficult terrain of the wounded layer – to help you discover and embrace the core self that’s calling you.
How I Work
A fly on the wall might think we were just talking. But it’s so much more than a chat.
At the heart of therapy with me is a process of co-narrating the story of your life in order to clarify your thoughts and feelings, heal the places you tend to get stuck, and connect with your core self so you can live with more ease, truth, and self-love.
You set the course by telling me what’s transpired, reflecting on your thoughts and feelings about it, sharing your frustration, rage, despair, fear, hope, desire, dreams, and more.
I walk alongside you, asking questions, making observations, and picking up the breadcrumbs we might need in order to make our way through the wounded layer to the core self.
All along the way, we’re noticing how the things that trouble you take root in your body, soul, mind, and the space around you, in your relationships, your goals and dreams, and your path forward.
We work together to clear that path and put some tools in place so you can see your way toward the life you want to live, where the dominant layer of your life is not the wounded place you’re used to but, instead, the core self – vibrant, inviolable, indomitable – that’s waiting for you to arrive.
“In the depth of winter I finally
learned that there was in me
an invincible summer.”
