Kate Cousin, MA, LPC
Therapist/Owner of Bloom Psychotherapy, LLC
Licensed in Wisconsin and Massachusetts
I believe we are all capable of healing and growth under the right circumstances. The power of human connection, community, and feeling heard and understood can be hard to overstate. As a practitioner, I bring knowledge, evidence-based techniques, and career experience, but I also bring an abundance of compassion, empathy, and grace because I fundamentally believe that every human being needs those things to truly thrive.
About Me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in LGBTQ+ mental health. I have over a decade of experience treating anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and loss, and much more. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, blending a variety of evidence-based techniques (including CBT, mindfulness, and emotion-focused therapy) with a person-centered lens. I have a warm, unassuming demeanor that allows space for each person to come as they are and find healing and growth in a non-judgmental, supportive environment.
I am currently providing virtual sessions via Zoom.
-
“I bring my authentic self to each therapy session—including my lived experience, sense of humor, and breadth of knowledge about the field—and invite each client to do the same. You will find in me a gentle, warm presence with an unassuming, nonjudgmental approach.”

“As a member of the queer community, I bring an abundance of understanding, empathy, and sensitivity when discussing issues of sexuality and gender. While LGBTQ concerns are not themselves clinical issues, I understand how identity intersects with other aspects of mental health, including stigma and marginalization, social climate, and personal safety. You are safe here to come exactly as you are.”
