Katrina Kipka, MSE

Hello friends!

Lets begin with something that I want you to know about me… I believe in your ability to change.

The next thing you need to know is…. Change requires effort from YOU. If you aren’t doing the work… if YOU aren’t putting in the effort; nothing is ever going to improve.

The good news is, you recognize that change is necessary. You’re THERE, that’s why you’re

HERE! (Yes! Here. Reading this!) Let me ask you a question…

Do you feel stuck? That’s because you’ve outgrown your current circumstances, but you’re afraid to take the steps that lead to the next chapter.

That’s where I come in! I can teach you how to share your space with the uncomfortable things in life. How to hold all of your feelings and relationships loosely and allow for the space that you need in order to continue to grow and evolve into the happiest, most authentic version of yourself!

Our relationship is based on trust and belief. I believe in you. I will tell you that I’m proud of you, and why. (Because you should know that someone is cheering for you!) I’ll also tell you when it might serve you to see things from another perspective (because telling you that you’re always right isn’t going to help you grow). I’ll challenge you, because I know that you can handle that!

Let’s talk about my specialties and experiences.

I possess a BA in Leadership from Bethel University and a Masters in Science Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin-Superior. I started practicing with Parasol Wellness Collaborative in 2024, and I offer a very relaxed and supportive environment, where you feel safe to open up and let things go.

I help a lot of people with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, Autism Spectrum

Disorder (level 1), obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (complex and otherwise), childhood trauma, low self-esteem, eating disorders, and more.

I see individuals ages 12 and up, on telehealth and out of our Otsego office.

I am also the owner and founder of Experience Counseling LLC, and I PROUDLY partner with Parasol Wellness Collaborative as a Clinical Mental Health Therapist and Director of Recruitment (bringing you even more amazing therapists to help you navigate life’s crap!)

If you’d like to get started and schedule an in-person or telehealth appointment, I have immediate openings and I’d love to meet you!
