LPC, 14 years of experience
Hello! My name is Catherine and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor based out of Georgia. I graduated from Argosy University, Atlanta and been a mental health therapist for 14 years with a CCPT-II (Certified Clinical Trauma Professional -2). I have extensive in-patient and out-patient experience working with adolescents and adults struggling with PTSD/trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, bi-polar disorder, LGBTQ and addiction/dependence.
Our first session is relaxed yet purposeful. It's all about getting to know each other and building the foundation for a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship. We will talk about the issues that bring you to therapy, identify your challenges, strengths and treatment goals, so we can create an effective individual treatment plan to faciliate the changes you desire.
As an in-patient and out-patient therapist with 14 years experience, I feel my greatest strength is the genuine ability to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment to meet people where they are emotionally and spiritually! As well as, my authentic desire to allow people to feel heard, accepted and appreciated results in a healthy therapeutic collaboration for change.
I love working with people who are seeking ways to change, but are unsure how. My ideal client is open and willing to work as a team and practice their new skills between sessions.

As I told Catherine at the end of our first session, there were always good choices when it came to choosing a therapist but she felt like a GREAT choice from the get-go. She was wonderful and personable and so kind to me. Providing a comforting and welcoming atmosphere in her session with me. I feel very excited to go on a journey of discovery, teaching, and learning with Catherine. Thank you so much!

She was super sweet, listening to everything that I had to say. She seems like a genuine person that wants to help. It felt easy talking to her and it didn’t feel like I was gonna be judged and one of the first things she told me was to not apologize for crying which was nice to hear. Only have had one appointment so far so I’m excited to be working with her.
