Here's what people have to say after one session with Kate...
Kate's Emotional Care Kit creation workshop is a MUST for ALL adults. After the mental health challenges of the pandemic and with everything going on in the world today, getting some extra help never hurts, especially when it's help you're able to give yourself. Creating an Emotional Care Kit helped me become more aware of my emotions and respond to them with more compassion, understanding, and love."
-Monica Acevedos
(past workshop participant)
Kate's easy-to-create Emotional Care Kit can help anyone develop the emotional hygiene needed for a bright future.
It is a tool that perfectly reflects the passion and compassion of its creator, Kate Burns.
- Ping Ho

Kate's ability to help people learn to access their highest level of self-care through their own language and creativity is unmatched. Her workshops and emotional self-care practices are both enjoyable and easily implementable. Highly recommend!

Meet Kate
Trauma-Healing Poet &
Creator of the 'Emotional Care Kit'
For almost a decade, I thought being overwhelmed was just part of being alive. I pushed through burnout, ignored my needs, and numbed out when things got too hard. Writing became the one place I could tell the truth — and slowly, it helped me come back to myself.
Now, I hold that space for others. I’m Kate Burns — a professional facilitator, poet, and speaker based in Los Angeles. I create creative emotional wellness workshops where people can pause, breathe, and explore what’s really going on beneath the surface — without judgment.
Whether I’m working with a treatment center, a team in crisis, or a group of people simply trying to stay afloat, my goal is the same: to help people feel what they’ve been carrying, reconnect with themselves, and move forward from a place of clarity and confidence.
