Katherine Mansfield, MSW

Dr. Mansfield-Houle has impressed me with her level of professional knowledge and experience and at the same time her friendly, caring encouragement. She challenges me to grow in a way that leaves me feeling like I have a whole team cheering me on.

The task of trying to describe how wonderful Dr. Mansfield-Houle is in 1000 characters is frankly overwhelming to me. My goals were to get out of the horrible place I was in, but then to stop the pattern I'd been repeating for years. I won't say it's "easy" to get out of a crisis, but once out, that's when my real work could begin. She is equally good when things are terrible and when they aren't. Beyond incredible kindness and compassion, that is something I feel sets her apart. I feel like she wants to help me *feel* better, but she also wants to help me to get better. I would not hesitate to recommend her. I'd honestly trip over myself in my haste to do so.

I’m writing my first ever review because what I read here helped me decide to call Dr. Mansfield. I wish I had done therapy with her sooner, but I guess I wasn’t ready. This first month of 2020 is better for me and my family than all of 2019, because of the changes I’ve made. I’m grateful, hopeful, and encouraged.

It’s not easy to open up to a stranger, but Dr. Mansfield made me feel comfortable right away. She listens well and has a better memory than I do, so I never have to repeat myself. I feel like she respects me and that she’s invested in me getting better.

Booking the initial appointment with Dr. Mansfield was my first of many steps in my journey to health and peace. I’m proud of what I’ve been able to achieve with her support and encouragement.

Dr. Mansfield was recommended to me by a coworker and she is as good as he said. I didn't think I was a therapy guy, but she helped me talk about things and I feel better. We made a plan. I'm making changes and can see progress. She hears me and she helps me hear myself. It's weird, but I'm a therapy guy now. A+

Her reviews are accurate. I travel a lot and never miss a week, because she is helping me address things that have held me back. I would say that my anxiety and depression were each at level ten when I started working with Dr. Mansfield, and now I'd rate them between 2 (average day) and 4 (really tough day). She's a great therapist!

Awesome in her care-of-others! Although we established that doesn't accept my insurance, Dr. Katherine spent several minutes on the phone with me to provide a recommendation...at almost 9:30 at night!! I was a bit shy about keeping a total stranger on the phone at the late hour, but she encouraged me to let her help. Technically, I didn't see her as a client/patient, but I can definitely say: she really cares.

I’m grateful to be working with her. My severe anxiety is in check with her help. My sleep is better and I look forward to each day. Amazing therapist!

She listens well, has an excellent sense of humor and memory. I know she cares. She’s great!

read opinions, started seeing her for maj school anxiety. office or phone/facetime, anx better, trust her, my opinion: nice, warm, woke.

My wife and I have been working with Dr. Mansfield-Houle since 2013 at our friend’s recommendation. My wife and I have been through a lot and our communication was almost nonexistent when we started therapy. At different points, we each have considered leaving the marriage. With Dr. Mansfield-Houle’s help, we work really hard in and out of the therapy room. Now, we are both committed to staying happily married. We credit our hard work and Dr. Mansfield-Houle.

I felt stuck and Dr. Mansfield-Houle listened without judgment. She gave me valuable insights that expanded my view of what I might achieve. I set short and long-term goals and have met some goals, exceeded others and continue to work toward others. Dr. Mansfield-Houle is great at her job.

It’s work, but through therapy with Dr. Mansfield-Houle, my anxiety and depression are well-managed. I highly recommend her.

Times are tough and therapy helps me reset. She's an excellent therapist.

My family, teenager included, trusts her. When we need her, she makes time for us and we work out our problems. We’re grateful to have her time and expertise.

Excellent therapist for my severe anxiety from trauma. I leave meetings feeling heard, respected, and understood with insight and hope.

Dr. Mansfield-Houle was referred to me after my second attempt. As the third anniversary approaches, I’m struck by how differently my future looks to me. I committed to be honest with her before I could commit to my life. She met my despair with compassion, my self-sabotage with patience, my excuses with focused belief in me. Now, I’m good to myself and have regained trust with people who love me. I hope this review will help anyone that can relate to my struggle.

I committed to be honest with her before I could commit to my life. She met my despair with compassion, my self-sabotage with patience, my excuses with focused belief in me. When I couldn’t get out of bed, she FaceTimed with me. Every step of my recommitment to my life has been made with Dr. Mansfield-Houle by my side. Now, I’m good to myself.

This is a note to Dr. Mansfield-Houle. It has been a long and satisfying road that we have taken together. Thank you for listening to me, making me feel valuable, your gentle guidance, your sound advice and honed skills, your integrity and deep compassion. Since we started my therapy, I have made serious discoveries and have grown in leaps and bounds. You always know what to say and when to say it. I still have more to grow and look forward to continuing on this path with your help. Thank you!
