Hello!

My name is Katie and I am excited to join the team at Chasing Dreams Support Planning.

I graduated from St. Cloud State University in 2015 with a major in Psychology and a minor in Community Psychology. After working in the mental health field, I decided to further my education and earned a Master’s of Social Work from Simmons University in 2019. Following two years of supervised practice, I became a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and have spent the past six years working as a mental health therapist. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated closely with social services, but I’m now eager to make a more direct impact through support planning. In my free time, I enjoy traveling, running, hiking, reading, and spending quality time with my husband and our two dogs. I also love watching and playing sports and even play in a sand volleyball and bowling league!

    Chasing Dreams Support Planning has been sooo… helpful! They offer quick responses, and want to get the plan right. I have worked with previous CDCS Support Planning, but Chasing Dreams has been the best!

    If you’re even slightly overwhelmed with the process of getting your child the support they need, I strongly recommend reaching out to the team at Chasing Dreams! They’ve been so helpful with both of my kiddos’ grant/waivers, and it takes a LOT of the pressure off an already overwhelming and exhausting process.

    I was nervous and unsure about changing my son's cares from DCD to CDCS based services, but my social worker thought it would be beneficial. Thank goodness I found Chasing Dreams!! They were so kind, reassuring, and knowledgeable. They took care of everything!
