Hi, I’m Catherine! I became a counselor because I want to help people heal. I have served North Carolina as a Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) for 8 years, helping clients of all ages navigate mental health issues and life’s situations. Whatever their age, I aim to guide clients towards a more authentic and successful way of living. Many of my own experiences influenced my desire to help others. I utilize this empathy to offer clients the quality of treatment I would want.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we’ll begin building our therapeutic relationship. As you share your history, you will be met with unconditional positive regard and empathy. We’ll discuss your reasons for coming to therapy, what you hope to change or gain, basically how you want to grow as a result of therapy. From this a treatment plan will be created, which serves as the roadmap for your therapy journey. Please note--Your first session might feel like a lot of you talking and me listening. That's because I need to gain a good sense of your experiences before offering guidance. In other words, your detailed history will give me invaluable insight into how to help you reach your therapy goals and might even show me additional areas we need to work through.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I lead counseling sessions with my authentic self, including therapeutic use of humor. I’m highly skilled at empathizing with clients while helping them see situations from different perspectives. I guide them beneath the surface in order to work through the root of their issues. I am also very action oriented. My clients leave session with more than insight--they gain strategies, new perspective, interpersonal skills and so much more! I believe in the cognitive triad - feelings, thoughts and behavior - change in one area results in changes in the others. Clients often have "therapy homework" which entails putting into practice in their daily lives what they learned in session.
