Hi, I’m Catherine. Helping people heal from trauma is something that means a lot to me—it’s a path I had to walk myself in my early twenties. Because of that, I really care about creating a space where you can go at your own pace, without any pressure or judgment. Everyone deserves the chance to feel safe, reconnect with who they are, and grow in their own time. My hope is to offer a space where you feel supported, understood, and gently guided as you move through your healing journey. Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve been doing the work for a while, I’m here to walk with you with compassion and honesty. I’m originally from Nashville but now call New York City home. When I’m not with clients, I’m usually reading, wandering around the city, or at a Yankees game. And fair warning—you might see a couple of curious cats wander into our sessions!

Will my therapist take insurance?

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
