Katheryn Brauckmann LCSW Claimed

“Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.” This quote by Rumi sums up my approach to therapy.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and founder of Totum Counseling and Consulting Services LLC. I have 15 years of experience supporting individuals in identifying and communicating their needs. I am passionate about supporting individuals to live whole lives full of happiness and emotional healthiness. I focus on exploring the mind, body, and spirit to aid in creating a unified whole that each you are excited and proud to be. I provide supervision to LCSW candidates and can provide supervision for up to 50% of LPC and LMFT candidates in PA.

In 2007, I graduated from Eastern University with a Bachelor of Social Work. I then obtained a Master of Social Work and a Master of Public and International Affairs from the University of Pittsburgh in 2010. I am trained in conflict resolution and offer mediation to disputes such as separation/divorce/custody issues. I am also trained to provide psychological evaluations for immigration and asylum seekers. My experience encompasses a variety of counseling environments including the homeless population, refugee resettlement, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, outpatient community mental health, a hospice social worker and trauma counselor for victims.

I am an expert in dealing with trauma and grief and establishing healthy relationships. I guide in understanding and expressing emotions, coping with loss, developing healthy boundaries, building communication skills and creating healthy, supportive relationships.
