Kathy Wierzchowski joined UHS in 2022 as a generalist mental health provider.

As a therapist, she practices from an interpersonal and cognitive behavioral orientation but also utilizes other orientations when they seem either more appropriate or a better fit for the client.

“I love that I can work with students in so many ways: individual and group counseling, through assessment services, crisis work, and through outreach services. All of these activities let me use my skills and interact with the campus community in a variety of ways every single day.”

Outside of UHS, Wierzchowski loves to read, travel, listen to music and go to concerts, and spend time with friends and family.
