​Catherine has spent the last 10 years supporting people through some of the most difficult moments of their lives. With a client centered approach, Catherine provides compassionate care that builds on the individual’s own values and goals.
​
Using Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Mindful Self-Compassion, she works with her clients to build a treatment plan that works for them. She is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) which is effective to break through emotional blocks that are getting in the way of living a healthy adaptive life. With a background in Palliative Care and Bereavement, Catherine provides experienced care to those suffering with grief and loss. Using additional training in solution-focused and narrative therapy she supports clients struggling with such things as grief, anxiety, depression, anger, life transitions, burnout, medical challenges, substance use, and perinatal loss.
​
Catherine focuses her practice on individual care for those 18 years of age or older. She has worked hard to build a non-judgmental environment and a safe space for people of diverse backgrounds and welcomes members of the LGBTQ2S+ community. Catherine brings her own values of compassion and acceptance to her therapeutic practice.
