If you are feeling suffocated under the pressure and weight of anxiety, depression, and stress, I want to assist you in regaining an interest in life and the fullness therein. I help individuals who long to feel complete and fulfilled and who seek to better understand the meaning of self as they deal with past issues that limit their ability to do so. My goal is to assist you in overcoming issues of trauma that may have left you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, unfulfilled and incomplete. My hope is to provide a pathway to healing and to a more full and complete life. My approach is direct and relatable. As there is no singular or individual method to success in therapy, we will address the issues together as a team with a united front prepared to succeed. To address trauma related issues, I use CBT, Mindfulness, EMDR, and Client -Centered Therapy. I believe the most beautiful pictures are created from broken pieces.

Right now you may be overwhelmed by spiraling thoughts and debilitating fear -- struggling to process your emotions. People see you as smart and successful, but inside you feel like you're barely hanging on. You’d like to understand yourself more and learn skills that help you feel stronger and healthier. This is the work that I do. I specialize in helping smart, caring women who struggle with anxiety learn to find more balance. Clients who’ve worked with me have reported that they understand themselves better, struggle less, and feel more at ease overall. They've learned to treat themselves with more kindness than criticism, and to shift from self-destructive to life-giving behaviors. They’ve learned to handle their emotions more effectively (especially fear, anger, and sadness), to listen to their own voice (how they feel, what they like, what they want), and to feel more like themselves. People who've worked with me in counseling have described me as gentle, down-to-earth, funny, and flexible. I am thoughtful and love to read, and to bring to my work a lot of skills and stories from varied sources. I’m also artsy and creative, and love to adapt metaphors and strategies that apply uniquely and directly to clients’ lives. As a therapist, I’m not so much interested in “fixing problems” as in coming alongside you to listen and to share honestly what stands out and what might help. I welcome people with diverse backgrounds and identities. I believe in growth and development across the lifespan and that we are *always* in the process of becoming. With nearly two decades of experience and extensive training as a therapist, I am passionate about highlighting women’s voices and stories and feelings. What I love about my work as a therapist is finding ways to help women be exactly who they already are, which I believe, paradoxically, is the path toward healing and change.
Have you ever felt overwhelmed in your life? Like things were out of your control? Have you ever felt stuck in patterns that you know are unhelpful? Have you ever wanted to make a change but were unsure of how to take the first step? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then art therapy can be a helpful resource for you. Hi, I'm Catherine, and I'm an Art Therapist. Since 2007, I have been helping my clients engage in their own art making, creativity, and self-inquiry as a way to find ease among life’s many challenges. As an Art Therapist and a Registered Yoga Teacher, I can guide you in art making, mindfulness, yoga, and self-compassion to help you relieve stress, cope with anxiety and depression, restore your energy, and discover new and creative ways to cope with simply being human. I understand the healing powers of creativity, mindfulness, and yoga not only from my work as an Art Therapist but because I have experienced the profound benefits myself for chronic pain, difficult life transitions, grief and loss, and professional burnout. Because of this experience, it is my mission to help you navigate this stressful time in your life and find the tools from within to leave you feeling calm, capable, and confident in whatever situation you may be facing.

I specialize in working with individuals who suffer from anxiety, OCD, and body focused repetitive behaviors (skin-picking, hair-pulling). Additionally, I work with individuals experiencing depression, stress, perfectionism, and those wishing to improve their ability to set boundaries in interpersonal relationships. I primarily utilize cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which is an active approach to therapy that aims to teach you skills to work toward your therapy goals. When appropriate, I incorporate exposure with response prevention (ERP) to assist individuals in gradually challenging themselves to overcome fears.

You may realize that your coping strategies are no longer working for you or that you are struggling to fit into a new environment. It is my honor to work with you through any challenges you are facing. I have particular experience working with women who are dealing with health challenges, anxiety, or who experience perfectionism or people pleasing.

You're tired of always feeling overwhelmed, on autopilot, or stuck in your head with anxiety and insecurities. Self-defeating beliefs and patterns are seriously getting in the way of your goals, work, or relationships. And maybe you also struggle with food, body image, or past events / traumas that make you wonder if you'll *ever* feel okay in your own skin. Did I just just describe you? Let's talk. I'm not a passive therapist-- I roll up my sleeves and give you tangible strategies to deal more effectively in the moment with difficult experiences, thoughts, and feelings. I help my clients learn how to be more assertive and authentic, and less focused on people-pleasing, perfectionism, approval-seeking, and the "shoulds" that weigh them down. I use EMDR, ACT, IFS, and somatic and experiential techniques to bridge the gap between head and heart, mind and body. I'm committed to helping you break through what's been blocking you from a compassionate relationship with yourself and deeper connection with your partner, family & friends. With this clarity, you're better equipped to engage your passion & purpose to contribute to the world in the ways you deeply desire.
