Recommended reading
Books and materials are often shared during therapy based on individual needs. A starter list will be expanded with client-approved recommendations over time. If you are looking for something specific (anxiety, trauma, gender, relationships, sobriety), ask during a session or consultation.
This section is intentionally brief for launch. Katy will continue adding trusted titles and links.
