LCSW, 5 years of experience
New to Grow
Hi! My name is Cathleen Huet, I am a licensed clinical social worker based in San Diego, CA and provide telehealth services in the state of California. I have my Master's degree in Social Work from University of Texas at Austin (2020) and have been in the social work field for five years. I have worked in a variety of settings- hospitals, homeless services, reentry programs, and inpatient psychiatric settings.
Our first session, I will ask you a lot of different questions to get to know you better. I want to know what you are hoping to get out of therapy so we can set some goals together.
I have been told by past clients that they feel like they are talking to someone they have known a long time. It is very important to me to provide a safe and welcoming space so that you feel comfortable to open up and share a little more about your life. I work with you to help you identify patterns you may have that may be holding you back, and try to use a solution-focused approach so you can implement tools from early on that can help you make changes in your life to start feeling better.
I have found my true passion is helping people going through life transitions- whether it is becoming a parent, grieving the end of a relationship, beginning a life of sobriety (or supporting someone on that path), or navigating a new career, I know how difficult these major life changes can be. I am honored to be able to be one person that can help you navigate these changes, and give you space to process the feelings that come along with them, as well as help you identify tools to take care of yourself as you enter the next chapter of your life. Maybe you are in a place where you are wanting to make a big change, but are too overwhelmed to know where to start- I would be honored to help you begin that journey.
I believe that people are the experts of their own lives, and the answers and clarity people seek out in therapy are within them. With a person centered approach, I aim to give each person a safe space to explore themselves and make positive changes in their lives.
The relationships we have in our lives are pivotal for our emotional well-being. With relational therapy, we can explore certain patterns that may exist with how you interact in your relationships (romantic, professional, friendships) and identify ways to create stronger, healthier relationships in your life.
