About Caterina
Her work centers on anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and bipolar concerns. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment questions, blended family issues, body image, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and eating-related concerns. She listens closely and helps clients set realistic goals they can work toward between sessions.
Cathe commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small changes, builds motivation for practical steps, and focuses on strengths to move forward. Sessions emphasize clear, manageable strategies rather than long theoretical discussions.
Her approach is collaborative. She works with each person to choose what makes sense for their goals and pace. Over two decades in practice has meant working through grief, trauma, family conflict, and chronic health challenges with many people.
People who come to Cathe can expect a steady listener who offers concrete tools and gentle accountability. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Online sessions with Caterina draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people make concrete change. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to ease symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify what matters to them and build the motivation needed to try new steps.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify strengths and practical next steps. That approach zeroes in on solutions a person can try right away, and tracks progress in short, achievable goals. Together these methods give a mix of skill practice, goal setting, and motivational support.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients can expect active discussion about options and adjustments over time to keep the work useful.
