About Catherine
She takes a whole-person view and draws on a mix of well-established approaches. Those include cognitive-behavioral ideas for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior, interpersonal methods for improving communication, and techniques for anger and stress management. Catherine also uses humanistic principles that emphasize the person's own strengths and goals.
Over 40 years she has worked with many different problems, such as grief, trauma and abuse, parenting and fatherhood issues, eating and food-related difficulties, and feelings of emptiness or shame. She also helps with career concerns, coping with life changes, and issues around infidelity, jealousy, or isolation. Her broad experience gives her familiarity with both short-term goals and longer patterns that keep people stuck.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical tools that fit daily life. Catherine uses straightforward language and collaborative planning to build steps the client can try between meetings. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
She holds LCSW credentials in New York and Florida and works in Florida. Sessions are offered in English and arrangements for international clients are possible; confirm current session options before booking.

Approaches that translate to online work
CBT tools focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online sessions can include talking through patterns, setting small experiments, and practicing coping strategies between meetings. Interpersonal techniques concentrate on improving communication and relationship skills. These methods help with conflicts, intimacy concerns, and building clearer boundaries in daily life. Anger and stress management strategies teach concrete skills for calming down and responding differently when strong emotions arise, which can be practiced and reviewed in sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, cut commute time, and allow focus on skills between meetings. It also supports follow-up check-ins and steady momentum when life is hectic. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to fit the way each person prefers to work.
