Hi! I'm Kate D'Amica Hostetter.
I am a licensed professional counselor passionate about helping people heal their relationship with food, their bodies, and others. With extensive experience in the eating disorder field, I understand recovery is hard not a one size fits all approach. Whether you have struggled with your emotions, body image, or mood, we will work together to help you navigate challenges in a values driven way. The care I provide is tailed to each individual, and I pull from evidenced based approaches to support the goals you create for yourself in therapy. I believe in collaborative care with your providers and supports, and that therapy is a come as you are space, not as you should be. The principles of HAES, intuitive eating, anti-diet and fat positive approachs are woven into all my of practice.

Hi, I'm Wilson!
As an aspiring therapy dog, Wilson loves people. Approachable, goofy, and calm natured he loves to sit next to anyone to provide support and comfort, and ask for the occasional chest rub. He can often be found curled up next to Kate or playing fetch, his favorite sport. He's hard at work at school learning manners to prepare him to become an emotional support dog. He passed his AKC Star Puppy and has his eyes on the AKC Canine Good Citizen Training. In his free time he loves to go swimming and he strongly supports the all-foods-fit approach.
