Kate McKee, PhD, LMFT
Specializes In:
Kate McKee is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), who has been practicing since 2006. She graduated from Western Michigan University in 2003 with a degree in Family Studies and Interpersonal Communication, and completed her Masters and Doctorate work at Michigan State University in 2016 with a degree in Human Development/Family Studies, specializing in Marriage and Family Therapy.
Kate believes it is important for her to build a strong relationship with her clients and meet them where they are at. She draws from a variety of theories and works collaboratively with her clients to find the best fit. Kate’s goal is to create a safe and respectful environment that supports vulnerability and promotes change. Her main areas of focus include Couples and Families, and medical conditions/chronic pain.
“I truly love what I do. I am grateful to the individuals, couples, and families that I have been honored to work with in the past; they have invited me into their lives, during some very vulnerable times, and I have witnessed incredible changes and growth.
I am excited for every new client or family I am able to work with. You are the expert of your life, and I am here to listen, and offer another perspective. I know that this is the work I was meant to do, and I hope to be doing it for many years to come.”
In her spare time, Kate enjoys traveling, eating good food, the Detroit Tigers, working out, and spending time with family, friends, and her German Shepherd, Clark.
