Welcome to Embody.

I’m Kate Wright (she/her), LMSW, LICSW, a queer therapist and doula based in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

I am passionate about the mind-body-spirit connection and utilize somatic work and mindfulness-based self-compassion in my practice.

My practice is rooted in a relational approach, and I bring my actual self, my personality, and intentionality to our sessions.

Embody is trauma informed, evidence based – and grounded in my own lived experience.

Somatic therapy has supported my own healing journey with mental health and autoimmune challenges, and I’m passionate about offering healing work for others that goes deeper than talk therapy.

I support individuals and couples through somatic therapy and mindful self-compassion, and I am currently pursuing formal training in Somatic Experiencing ®

I am licensed as a therapist in both Michigan and Massachusetts and I am also trained as a full spectrum doula.

I have received a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Michigan.

I was trained as a birth doula through the Matrona and as a postpartum doula through Cornerstone.

In my free time, you’ll find me reading romantasy, cooking, hiking, mountain biking, or spending time in nature.

I look forward to learning more about you and supporting your healing journey!
