Hi, I'm Kady!

I'm a doctoral intern practicing out of Fort Collins, CO with a focus in assessment.

I am currently in my sixth and final year of pursuing a PhD in Counseling Psychology from the University of Northern Colorado! I also have pursued a doctoral minor in Applied Statistics and Research Methods. I am an alumna of UNC with two undergraduate degrees in Psychology and Business Management. I have had the honor of matching with the Colorado Center for Assessment and Counseling Adult Track for my internship year and will be conducting psychological assessments with adults.

Throughout my program, I have been lucky to work at Children’s Hospital Colorado, Psychological Services Clinic at UNC, North Range Behavioral Health Crisis Response Team, and the McNair Scholars Program at UNC. My research has predominantly centered around adversities including childhood trauma, gender disparities, first generations student experiences, and historical psychology. My dissertation is Childhood Trauma History and Vicarious Traumatization in Early Career Mental Health Professionals: The Roles of Supervisory Working Alliance and Shame.

On a personal note, I was born and raised by the beach in Carlsbad, California. I moved to Colorado ten years ago and have called Colorado my home since. In my free time, I enjoy snuggling with my cats (Lilo and Sophie), baking, watching anything Disney or Harry Potter, spending time with friends, drawing, or playing trivia and board games.
