About Katz Psychological

The Full Story
By Dr. Jamie N. Katz, Psy.D.

I grew up in a home where mental health was not just valued—it was nurtured. From an early age, I learned the power of therapeutic connection. As a little girl, I struggled with separation anxiety. My parents, always attuned and supportive, brought me to a gifted therapist who introduced me to play therapy. That experience stayed with me—it was my first glimpse into the healing potential of therapy.

 

As I grew older, my personal therapeutic journey continued. Like so many others, I’ve faced my share of anxiety and depression, and therapy has remained a trusted companion through life’s inevitable challenges. These experiences not only deepened my self-understanding, but solidified my belief that everyone deserves a safe, compassionate space to be heard and held.

 

I knew by high school that I wanted to be a psychologist. That clarity came when I read "Girl, Interrupted." Something clicked. I saw people who were hurting, trying to find their way, and I thought: I want to help. As Susanna Kaysen wrote, “Was I ever crazy? Maybe. Or maybe life is.” That line stayed with me. It’s the truth so many of us walk with—pain, confusion, healing, and hope, all woven together in the human experience.

 

Creating Katz Psychological Services has been a dream grounded in intention and love. I didn’t want a sterile office that felt clinical and cold. I envisioned a space that felt like a warm, artfully designed refuge—a place where healing can unfold naturally. Every detail was crafted to make our clients feel safe, inspired, and truly seen. Our care is never one-size-fits-all. We offer bespoke, deeply personalized therapy that honors the uniqueness of every individual who walks through our door.

 

I also find profound joy in supervising other clinicians. There’s a beauty in mentorship—the mutual growth, the shared curiosity. I learn so much from the therapists I support, and it’s an honor to walk beside them as they grow into confident, compassionate practitioners.

 

If you’re looking for a place to feel safe, heard, and empowered—whether for yourself, your child, or someone you love—we’re here. You don’t have to do it alone. Give us a call. Let’s take that next step together.
