The SpeakEasy Story

SpeakEasy Counseling & Psychotherapy is an endeavor decades in the making...

After a professional journey spanning almost 25 years, founder Katie Brzozowski formed SpeakEasy Counseling and Psychotherapy to meet the growing need for ethical, evidence-based, and experienced outpatient therapy services. Since 2012, Katie has owned a solo practice in the area and has built reputation of empathy, genuineness, and strong clinical skills. As a former university professor, Katie is also well-versed in the theory, treatment methods, and clinical techniques behind therapy that works. The experience and insight is now combined with that of our other highly-trained therapists creating a therapy practice that you can trust.

Treatment Approaches

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Every client is different, which is why we consider your particular issue, goals, expectations, and personal attributes when choosing a treatment approach. We combine that with what the research shows to be the best treatment as well as the practitioner’s expertise in order to provide the best care possible.

Common approaches we use at SpeakEasy:

We take this very seriously. We ground our interventions in the theories and treatment models that are appropriate for your specific needs and we strive for excellence in everything we do. We combine our empathy, personality, and genuineness with the evidence-based practices that are behind successful therapy and are guided by the commitment to provide experienced, effective, and ethical care.
