Katherine "Kate" Lynch, LCSW

Katherine "Kate" Lynch is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a licensed mental health clinician trained to provide psychotherapy and clinical social work services. She brings a practical, empathetic approach shaped by both professional experience and roles in her personal life as a wife and mother, recognizing that balance often requires intention and effort.

Kate completed a bachelor of social work at Ball State University in 2012 and earned her master of social work from IUPUI in 2014. Since beginning practice in 2014, she has worked across hospitals, mental health facilities, shelters, and schools, collaborating with interdisciplinary teams and serving a wide range of clients and family situations.

Her clinical focus includes trauma and grief, and she holds certifications in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), exposure therapy, and Seeking Safety. She also integrates Motivational Interviewing, strength-based techniques, and grief counseling to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Kate prioritizes building strong therapeutic relationships and works to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings. She supports individuals and families through challenges such as depression, attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress, helping clients set goals and develop practical coping skills. Taking the first step toward change requires courage, and she aims to support clients throughout that process.
