Aditra Albright, LCPC

Drawing on almost 15 years of experience as a clinical therapist, I am shifting my area of practice to helping women live their best life. My belief is treatment should focus on developing safe and trusting relationships, creating an environment that allows women to be open, and providing the tools to help navigate through their struggles.

My area of expertise is the treatment of anxiety, depression, and trauma. Often, it can be helpful to sort through the past to make sense of the present and future. I am relatable with a down to earth style. I love to use humor as well as real life experiences to connect. Together, we can focus on practical ways to improve daily functioning to find a path to more peace and joy in life.

We are all here to help, we’d love to hear from you!

What our amazing moms have to say:

"I do not know where I would be if Katie hadn’t walked into my life. She is compassion defined. My entire family owes her a debt of gratitude that cannot be replaced."

"Katie's kindness and genuine care for me and the process I was going through, warmed my heart in a way that went way beyond her role as a lactation consultant. Since then, I not only recognize Katie as one of my beacons of light in a difficult period."

"Let me tell you, she was such a breath of fresh air! She was just what I needed at that desperate time. I walked into her office and she had such a sweet and gentle spirit about her. I immediately felt comfortable, she was so understanding and encouraging."

"I joined the breastfeeding support group and it was all so encouraging, nonjudgmental and supportive. She was exactly what I needed and didn’t know it."

"She has a way of speaking with everyone, like she’s known you forever, like she’s an old friend. It was so easy to just open up… the good and the bad. It was so nice for someone to ask how I was doing without zero judgement."
