Katy Vandruff, M.S., LPC

No one should have to go through this life alone. I believe in the power of relationships to bring about positive transformation. I support teens, college students, and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, adjustment difficulties, among other challenges. Being a teen or young adult can feel overwhelming, and can come with so many changes, new responsibilities, and new experiences. I help clients process these feelings and experiences, and support you in coping with, and managing, your emotions so that you can be the best versions of yourself.

My approach to therapy is centered on meeting individuals where they are at. As a counselor, my focus is to be a safe and warm presence for you and for us to build a trust-worthy relationship as we navigate your challenges and needs together. I use a client-centered approach, allowing clients to take the lead in their own healing process while walking alongside you in your own self-exploration so that you can make sense of your own experiences, thoughts, and feelings. By the end of our first session, my hope is that you feel more comfortable and open, and have a bit more understanding and clarity about your needs. It's a privilege to walk alongside my clients and witness transformation!

I received my Bachelor's of Science in Psychology from Texas Christian University, and my Master's of Science in Counseling from East Texas A&M University. Prior to becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor, I spent several years working in youth ministry and non-profit settings in various positions, centered on supporting adolescents and young adults in their development and wellbeing.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and golden retriever, sipping lattes, eating Tex Mex, going on walks or hikes, seeing friends and loved ones, and cozying up on the couch to watch a show or read. I look forward to welcoming my first child in November.
