Katie Guillory is a qualitative researcher and facilitator who brings rare depth to the work of paying attention. With a degree in linguistics from Harvard, she has spent over two decades listening closely — to language, to people, to what is said and what is not. For most of her career, she has worked independently, building a practice rooted in curiosity, connection, and the belief that real insight does not arrive on demand — it emerges.

Her background in theater brings timing and presence. Her work with psychoanalysts shaped her capacity to stay with complexity — to join resistance, to notice what might otherwise be missed. She has a knack for asking just the right question — not to steer, but to open. Humor has always had a seat at the table. So has grief.

Goldmine is the natural shape her work has taken — in groups, in coaching, in the kind of conversations that shift something real. Her spaces are warm, thoughtful, and quietly transformative. People often leave saying, “I didn’t know I needed that.”
