Mental Health Practitioner
Catherine (she/her) is driven by the belief that everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and understood. She views therapy as a collaborative and unique process that must be tailored to each person’s needs, with the client as the expert on themselves. She strives to create a safe, non-judgmental, and welcoming space for anyone that comes to her office or meets over telehealth, so they may learn more about themselves and experience hope and healing. She welcomes clients of all ages from all walks of life (ethnicity, race, religion, gender identity, and sexual orientation), and particularly enjoys working with people who are motivated and active in the therapy process. She also finds working with children, adolescents, and young adults to be especially rewarding, because early intervention can help avoid unnecessary pain and struggle later in life. She likes working with couples as well, because a lot of change can come from partners working through issues together.
Drawing from a diverse array of educational, career and life experience, Catherine hopes to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life by combining insight with action. Her approach to therapy is whole person-centered, holistic, and focuses on exploring individual strengths and challenges with sensitivity, compassion, and curiosity. She aims to help you regain confidence, re-establish healthy relationships (with yourself and others), navigate challenges, and attain life goals by implementing a variety of innovative strategies and techniques. Recognizing the importance of humor and connection in healing, she will offer you steadfast encouragement and support with honesty, laughter, and grace. It takes courage to be vulnerable, and vulnerability is what inspires growth; Catherine works to create an environment where clients feel respected and validated, to be able to be vulnerable. She will be a strong ally as you progress on your healing journey.
