Welcome, I’m glad you’re here.

You have likely landed here because something just feels “off.” You feel exhausted, stagnant, generally discontented, and overwhelmed. You would like to experience life or work in a more vibrant, joyful way, but you don’t know where to start. Whether you are looking for psychotherapy, well-being coaching, or organizational consultation for your company, I can help.

I’m Dr. Kate Hawley (she, her), PhD. I am a Positive Psychology Expert, Clinical Psychologist, Wellbeing Coach, Organizational Consultant, and Applied Researcher. I specialize in helping people and organizations unlock their unique strengths, and feel alive in pursuit of their most meaningful goals.

Throughout my career, I have helped over 1000 people move toward what they want and free themselves to pursue greater levels of well-being. I work solely with people who are motivated to put in the effort it takes to create lasting change.

In addition to my psychotherapy, coaching, and consulting work, I also currently serve as Director of Research at Vivid Insight, an organization focused on applying positive psychology techniques to mental training in sports performance for serious athletes. You can see our work here.
