About Us
Ever wonder what it's like to be a therapist?
We're two therapists who are here to give you the inside scoop and share opinions about issues in the world of mental health.
Kate Stephens, LCPC
I'm Kate, a millennial therapist in Maryland (also licensed to practice in DC, Florida, and South Carolina). I specialize in the intersection of eating disorders and trauma and utilize EMDR to help clients work through past experiences that are infringing on the present. I'm a firm believer that people can change if they want to and that therapy should include humor along with the tears. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and dog and watching hours of Bravo TV.
Nooshin Kiankhooy, LCPC, CED-S
Hi, I’m Nooshin and I’m a Xennial therapist in Maryland specializing in eating disorders and trauma. I recently went through EMDR training and am obsessed with all things related to it. I founded Empowering You in Olney , MD and love working with my associates and supervising new clinicians. I also have my CEDS-S (Certified Eating Disorder Specialist-Supervisor) and have over ten years in the eating disorder field. I hope that you find our podcast fun, relatable and sometimes educational! In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two girls (well, most of the time), our bulldog Clover and trying out new restaurants.
