Cathryn Charette

Cathryn Charette, LMFT, brings five years of clinical experience and a humanistic perspective to therapy. She centers on strengths and personal growth to help people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, relationship pain, grief, or trauma. Her work emphasizes building self awareness and clearer direction in day-to-day choices.

Cathryn helps clients notice their values and use them to guide decisions. She encourages mindfulness so people can respond more deliberately to stressful moments. That often means learning new ways to set boundaries and care for yourself while staying connected to others.

Her approach supports people moving toward what psychologists call earned security - rebuilding a stronger sense of self after childhood wounds, adult trauma, or difficult relationships. She talks through patterns that keep people feeling limited and practices new responses together in session.

Cathryn integrates evidence-based methods with a warm, nonjudgmental stance. She leans on therapies that focus on thoughts, emotions, and attachment to help clients gain insight and practical skills. Sessions are meant to be a collaborative space for exploration and problem solving.

She describes her style as inclusive, patient, and caring. Cathryn welcomes people with diverse backgrounds and perspectives and aims to help them grow confidence, improve relationships, and manage life transitions. For parents reading on a phone, she focuses on short clear steps you can try between meetings.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small actions in that direction. It often focuses on values, present-moment awareness, and accepting difficult feelings while committing to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches concrete steps to shift them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with clients to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That means trying things, checking in, and adjusting the plan together rather than prescribing one single path.

The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, enabling shorter check-ins around work breaks, or offering a phone option when bandwidth or quiet space is limited. Licensed professionals can use these practical benefits to help clients practice new skills in real life and keep momentum between meetings.
