ServicesIndividuals
We all have a story of who we are and where we are in our lives. If you’re at a difficult juncture right now, it may be that something is challenging your concept of yourself and your ability to move forward into the future. Integral to my aims and interests as a therapist is helping you understand your current narrative and, if necessary, helping you come to a new way of looking at your past, present, and future. This will allow you to participate in life and relationships in a way that is far more satisfying. Couples
Underlying my work with couples is my understanding that we all want to be loved for who we are. Healthy and satisfying relationships meet these yearnings to be seen, understood, acknowledged, and valued for one’s self. I work with you first to develop strategies for easing immediate conflicts, which might be about such issues as money, sex, communication, and/or children. I then help you repair ruptures in your relationship and forge new connections, new rituals of nurturing, and new positive interactions. Families
Family life in all its forms and stages can be challenging. I work with you to find practical ways to cope with the immediate issues causing conflict and to allow each individual in your family to voice his or her concerns. We then work toward repairing ruptures in the relationships and toward ensuring that the needs of each family member can be identified, honored, and addressed in ways appropriate to his or her age and stage of development. One of my particular interests is helping men and women to become more effective parents and to gain more pleasure and satisfaction in all their family relationships. 
Parenting groups
Groups for Mothers I offer small support and psychoeducation groups for mothers that follow the content of my Mothering Without a Map book and workshop. They are support and education groups for women who were under-mothered, for whatever reason, and now seek to mother their own children in a new way. The focus is on providing a place for participants to identify the kind of parenting they received, to understand themselves as women and mothers, and to strengthen the mothering map that suits them and their children. Each week includes reading and homework. For more information and dates of the next 6-week session please contact Kathryn at 720.352.8710 or kb@kathrynblack.com Groups for fathers With Trevor Graham, Psy.D., I offer 6-week support and psychoeducation groups for fathers based in the attachment system of behaviors. The groups focus on providing men an understanding of how successful fathers connect with their children. Each week includes reading and homework.
