Counseling
Your Path To Healing Starts Here...
Hello and Welcome!
I'm so happy that your search for a therapist brought you here. I invite you to come exactly as you are right now.
You don't have to navigate this journey alone. Life can feel overwhelming when you're carrying anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, or a lingering sense that you've lost connection with yourself. Perhaps you've spent years caring for others while ignoring your own needs, or you've reached a point where the strategies that once worked no longer bring the peace you're seeking. Therapy can be a space to reconnect with your inner wisdom, discover new possibilities, and create meaningful change.
Hi there! My name is Katie Gross. I am the founder and owner of Sparrow & Sage Counseling. I have spent many years gathering an alphabet soup behind my name, however, I strive to be down to earth and just "Katie" to my clients.
I have developed several areas of specialty over my career thus far. I consider it my honor to help adults and couples work through many of life’s toughest challenges. Being connected to a sense of meaning and purpose can alleviate many of our daily stressors. I strive to embrace a total wellness model encompassing the mind, body, and spirit for success now and in the future.
I have a profound respect and desire to work with those individuals struggling with mood disorders, psychosis, and complex mental health challenges. I enjoy collaborating with the other members of your care team to provide the best, wrap-around care possible. I love piecing together the puzzle and because of this insatiable curiosity, I have embarked on the journey of providing psychological evaluations to help answer your questions and help your inner world make more sense.
Another area that I am drawn to is exploring all facets of spirituality with clients whether you find yourself literally haunted by the paranormal, are exploring your own intuitive abilities, deconstructing your faith, or trying to walk closer with God, and trying to figure out your place and purpose in this crazy life -- I'm here to listen and to help you in this journey.
I consider myself to be a "forever student" and also seeking out areas to grow and stretch. Education & teaching have quickly become a passion of mine and watching the younger generation of therapists grow and develop has been a humbling experience.
In my free time, I love playing outside with my family on the beach or hiking, rock hounding, and gardening. I am a momma of two lively children, three high maintenance cats & a military wife and Air Force veteran. My love languages are plants, snacks, fuzzy blankets, and white monster drinks.
