PACT individual & Couples therapist Kathryn Sosnowski

Hi, I’m Kathryn,

I became a therapist after working in the Silicon Valley tech scene for many years, and my lived experience of relationship, career, and raising a family fundamentally informs my therapeutic approach.

I believe that true change comes not from altering who you are, but from finding and embracing hidden or repressed parts of yourself for self-actualization. Together, we will work on self-awareness, responsibility, and personal growth, addressing unresolved issues and patterns of resistance while considering the impact of culture and relational systems.

I specialize in couples therapy, holding Level 1 training in the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT). My goal is to help couples build meaningful, fulfilling relationships by guiding partners to become experts in one another and fostering a shared psychological system that leads to a deeper sense of connectedness and security.

Create the relationship you want to have

Whether you're experiencing challenges with day-to-day living, a major life event or crisis, or ambivalence about your relationship, I utilize the Psychobiological Approach to Couples Therapy (PACT) to help couples navigate these challenges in ways that build trust, clarity, security and connection rather than undermine it. I work with you to become experts on each other through deeper attunement, and to make your imagined relationship a reality by defining agreements that support a shared mission and vision - your reason for being together.
Gain confidence through self-exploration

Feelings of inadequacy and shame can be painful and debilitating, creating imposter syndrome at work, friction with loved ones, and a lack of fulfillment. I can help you build confidence through the development of self-awareness and personal responsibility in a warm and supportive environment. Using attachment theory, we explore how you relate to yourself and others through your attachment style and how that came to be, and address beliefs and adaptations that may no longer serve you. My aim is to create transformative experiences within the therapy room that can positively impact your life beyond our sessions.
Process painful experiences & navigate life transitions

We cannot run from our past, nor can we fully anticipate what the future will hold. By bringing the impact of the past and anticipation about the future into the present moment, I collaborate with you to recognize and validate your emotional experiences and develop adaptive coping strategies that foster resilience and fortitude.
