Welcome to HeartSpace Counseling. My name is Catharine Guicheney, and I have been blessed to work with folks from all walks of life as a board certified licensed clinical social worker for over 30 years. I gear my practice towards after hours support with appointments available M-F in the evenings and on Saturdays. I am currently accepting new clients for virtual sessions and hope to hear from you.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My style of counseling can be described as relaxed, supportive, educational, offering space for what is most distressing with opportunities to consider different perspectives. Most of my experience has revolved around helping adults adjust to life altering events with a focus on trauma, loss and grief.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
The treatment methods I employ vary between supportive counseling, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), DBT (dialetical behavior therapy), narrative therapy integrated with family systems/adult children issues as appropriate.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Struggles in life are inevitable. Good mental health care helps turn down the volume on anxiety, depressive, and trauma symptoms making the overwhelming waters more manageable. My goal is to create an safe, open, supportive environment for you which fosters your healing, growth and resilience. It would be my honor to work with you on your healing journey.
