Kaitlyn Sferrazza (she/her)

I'm not the type of therapist who will give you lots of worksheets to complete in between sessions nor am I the type of therapist to simply ask, "And how does that make you feel?" multiple times in a session. I wanted to be the therapist I never had but needed as a teen and navigating life in my early twenties. I practice from a more psychoanalytic lens and will encourage my clients to often make timelines as we work through a particular issue to view the snapshots from the past. I believe in meeting the client where they are at, but find I work best with people who are ready & willing to challenge unsupportive thoughts/narratives they have formed & to become open to new possibilities. I have experience in inpatient, group practice, community mental health and school settings. I worked at a group practice for 2 years that focused solely on the treatment of eating disorders. I opened my private practice after 6 years in the field.

I am currently involved in some clinical trials, particularly in the areas of eating disorders and ADHD. This is why I am operating as an online practice at this time. I am not able to share too much information as the trials are still ongoing, but I am excited to see the data and how it can improve our clinical approaches and treat eating disorders in neurodivergent clients. I have a French bulldog who is trained as a therapy dog. She has adapted to working virtually and enjoys outdoor dining, watching movies, and getting pup cups at Starbucks. I am a freelance editor and often review books and graphic novels that touch on mental health and eating disorders to ensure they are appropriate for mass consumption. I hope to write my own book in the future.
