Kathy Tellstrom CD,CLD,CPD,DIP CBEd(CBI)

Dedicated family member.

Motivated, compassionate educator who is sensitive to client's personal level of awareness and needs.

Ability to individualize clients needs, concerns and requests.

Personalable. Understanding. Committed.

 
My name is Kathy Tellstrom. I have been a resident of Door County Wisconsin and a member of the Sturgeon Bay community for twenty (plus) years. My husband is a grade school teacher for the Sturgeon Bay Public School District. We are the proud parents of six amazing children. Our childrens' ages range from three years to twenty - two years of age. Parenting over the years has given me an opportunity to learn a great deal. I have spent the past twenty-five years of my life dedicated to my family, highly involved in school, church and community activities.

I have always had a passion for the teenage population. When I was in High School I participated in the 'Youth Tutor Youth Program' where I began teaching theater to Jr. High students. Over the years I have participated in Kinship/ Big Sisters Program, Girl/Boy Scouts, Youth Group (Church), Community Youth Theater as teacher, director and participant.
 
I believe in a personal approach to your birth and parenting experience. This is your body, your baby and your journey. I look forward to assisting you while you discover your path towards becoming a parent.
