Hi! I’m Catherine, a licensed clinical social with experience providing psychotherapy in private practice and community mental health settings. I guide adults and adolescents with anxiety, grief, trauma, relationship issues, and stress related to life transitions through the healing process. I approach each client with warmth and genuine curiosity about their history, experiences, strengths, and challenges. Through and exploration of the “what now?” and “what next?” I assist clients in taking steps forward on a meaningful and authentic life path with a special focus on Gen-Xers, Millennials, and Gen-Zs. In my therapeutic practice, I focus on helping you develop new strategies and perspectives to experience life with less suffering. Together, we’ll address current symptoms while also exploring the root causes for discontent. I am also a yoga teacher and incorporate somatic and mindfulness philosophy into my practice. I hold a Master of Social Work from Aurora University in Aurora, Illinois and a Bachelor of Arts in English from North Central College in Naperville, Illinois. I returned to school to pursue my Master of Social work after a successful career in public relations and marketing with tenures in the public, private, and non-profit sectors. I received advanced training in psychodynamic therapy, grief therapy, anxiety and related disorders, and emotionally focused therapy.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll take some time to get to know each other while also delving into some of the specific challenges you're facing and areas you'd like some help. From there, we'll collaborate to effectively work to resolve those challenges.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I possess a unique understanding of navigating career pivots, addressing the challenges inherent in being part of a sandwich generation, and adapting to ever evolving family dynamics that significantly impact one's ability to manage life's challenges and create fulfilling experiences. In addition to my professional expertise, I bring a valuable perspective as a yoga instructor. Integrating principles of breath work, movement, and proven strategies to calm the fluctuations of the mind, I assist clients in finding clarity and tranquility admits life's demands.
