About Catherine
She focuses on the effects that difficult events can leave behind, like trouble sleeping, problems with intimacy, or recurring feelings of emptiness. Eating and food-related issues and body image concerns are included among the topics she addresses. Catherine also works with people facing life changes such as divorce, blended family stress, caregiving burdens, and career shifts.
Her approach is collaborative and grounded in several practical methods. She uses client-centered listening to understand each person’s priorities, and she draws on emotionally-focused and mindfulness-based techniques to help regulate strong feelings. Narrative and solution-focused ideas are used when people want concrete steps and new ways to tell their story.
With six years of counseling experience, Catherine brings both personal and professional insight into grief and trauma recovery. She aims to make sessions a place to sort through emotions and test new ways of coping. Her goal is to help clients build clearer next steps and steadier day-to-day functioning.
To begin, visitors are invited to reach out with questions or to arrange an initial conversation. The process is intended to match goals with a pace that feels manageable and useful.
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they feel understood; this helps when someone is processing grief, trauma, or relationship hurts. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape interactions and internal responses, which can be useful for handling intense feelings tied to loss or attachment wounds. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to notice thoughts and body sensations with less reactivity, and that can ease anxiety, sleep trouble, and recurring distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to try first, based on their needs, goals, and what feels doable. Goals and techniques can be adjusted over time as the client notices what helps most.
Confirm the exact online session options before booking, since this profile does not list formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Video or phone sessions can support steady progress through regular meetings while allowing people to use quieter surroundings or a break at work to attend. Licensed professionals adapt their tools to work well at a distance and focus on practical steps for coping and recovery.
