Are you someone who had always thought therapy wasn't for you? Did it seem too fluffy and uncomfortable? And yet, you find yourself here because you are at a stuck point in life and need to make a change. Sometimes we find ourselves moving through patterns that just aren't working for us anymore, or knowing exactly what we need to do but feeling lost about how to put it into practice. If this sounds like you, I'd like to help. My services mix CBT, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Yet, I take a more practical and casual approach because any change needs to be authentic to a person to be sustainable. Meaning, if a tool feels unnatural or too cheesy, you're not going to use it. So, you're a big part of tailoring services. If doing the same thing and expecting different results just isn't working for you, let's collaborate to find new strategies that are scientifically backed and still true to you. Not keen on detailing your trauma? I'm happy to meet you at a starting point that you feel comfortable with. LEO/First Responders/Veterans/Corrections welcome!

Finding a therapist that you connect with and feel understood by is an integral part of therapy. I help people work towards improved connection within themselves, their relationships, and their sexuality. At times we may struggle to communicate and connect with our partners, experience a lack of passion and romance, or have difficulty managing life struggles, distressing events, or conflict in our relationships. Therapy can be a chance to rediscover yourself, your relationships, and heal from painful life experiences while exploring new skills and resources to grow and develop increased relationship and life satisfaction. I specialize in working with couples and individuals around relationship concerns, intimacy, desire discrepancies/low desire, trauma, infidelity, anxiety, and sexual health & pleasure. I help couples and individuals increase insight and understanding of how their mind, body, and attachment styles influence their quality of life and relationships. I am trained in EMDR and utilize it in my practice to help people experience relief from traumatic and distressing life experiences. I am also trained in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, as well as a Sex Therapy Certificate from the California Institute of Integral Studies.

My ideal client comes with a desire to release themselves from pain and move toward a better sense of self in the process. Many of my clients are working through previous trauma (childhood and adult), have experienced loss, and many belong to a marginalized community. Some of my clients benefit from long-term therapy, while others engage in brief therapy to help get back on track to a better quality of life. My specialties include working with survivors of trauma, including childhood sexual abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence. I also work with people who have lost a loved one to a sudden death, such as homicide, suicide, or accidents.

Catherine understands how difficult it can be to take the first step in asking for support. Because of this, she strives to meet her clients exactly where they are in terms of individual characteristics, preferences, needs, abilities, and spiritual beliefs. Catherine knows this will look different for everyone which means therapy must be tailored specifically to each client. She recognizes that often our emotional challenges are complex in nature and, therefore, seeks to treat the client as a whole by exploring the physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual components to obstacles and growth. Her approach to counseling is integrative with a focus on developing specific goals for growth and helping you navigate the path to achieve them. She believes everyone has the capability to face and conquer their personal struggles, whatever they may be, and is passionate about helping clients to discover and enhance their abilities. She believes true transformation requires a strong therapeutic alliance and your willingness to commit and accept ownership of your actions and life. In doing so, Catherine is able to collaborate with you the client to create a therapy relationship that is productive for you. As a Christian, she welcomes those from all different backgrounds and spirituality.

There are times when the challenges we face exceed our capacity to meet them. Therapy can help. It provides insight and support so we can live the life we want to live. As a trained clinician, I offer you the opportunity to examine how you think, feel and act. You will gain insight into yourself and others. As someone who has borne witness to hundreds of individuals transforming their lives, I offer support as you make the changes you want to make. Time invested in yourself is well worth it. I encourage you to give yourself the gift of therapy. My style is casual and interactive. My background as a substance abuse counselor taught me that, with support, people naturally move toward healing. I find humor helps immensely along the way. I believe in each client's ability to find answers for themselves or live into the questions they ponder.
