I specialize in Trauma, Anxiety, and Addiction and am LGBTQ-friendly. We can identify old wounds and work on challenging old coping skills and beliefs that impede growth and personal happiness. I’ve been working in the field for the past twenty five years with a variety of issues, including chronic and persistent mental illness, anxiety, depression, addiction, family of origin issues, trauma, behavioral issues, sexual orientation, and anger. I have personal and advanced training in working with addiction and Substance Use Disorders. I have also worked with Co-occurring Disorders and I have advanced training in working with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, IFS, and EMDR. I embrace diversity of age, culture, gender identification, and beliefs. While most of us have some broken edges, it need not define us. Together we can heal and transform into creative and purposeful people and find personal acceptance.

Hi, I'm Cat! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oregon, and I believe therapy works best when you feel comfortable being yourself. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are without judgment and feel supported as we work through whatever you're facing. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, grief, life transitions, and medical or chronic health concerns. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed care, but more than anything, I believe in building a genuine connection with my clients. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, and you don't have to have everything figured out before reaching out. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for extra support, I'd be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing, growth, and the life you want to build.

Some of my clients talk about the challenges of sharing past trauma with others because they feel like it is "too much" and they've had negative experiences with the reactions of other helpers. I worked for 20 years in substance abuse programs and mental health roles in correctional facilities. In these roles, I worked to provide dignity, skills, and accountability for individuals in custody in order to aid in creating change both for them individually and increasing community safety. This experience has been instrumental for me in understanding and being able to sit with the pain of others. My experience has really allowed for me to hold healing space for these folks because I don't have judgment or a personal reaction to stories and expressions of trauma due to my experiences. I describe my style as being pretty down to earth, neurodivergent affirming, and creative. I am direct and clear in pointing out areas for growth and sharing patterns of thinking or behavior that increase challenges for clients as well as identifying progress and change. I have been working in therapy specifically since 2021 and started my own practice in 2024. I provide ADHD assessments and WPATH gender affirming care assessments as well as therapy with CBT, DBT, and EMDR frameworks. My core values have always been built around helping others, creating authentic and caring spaces, and (to quote Gandhi) being the change I'd like to see in the world.

With over a decade of experience supporting adults, adolescents, children, and families, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people as they navigate meaningful and challenging chapters of their lives. My therapeutic approach is grounded in DBT, CBT, solution‑focused therapy, and client‑driven interventions. Blending these modalities allows me to tailor our work to your unique needs rather than relying on a one‑size‑fits‑all method. I strive to create a collaborative, supportive environment where growth feels possible and where you feel genuinely heard. My goal is to offer an experience filled with encouragement, compassionate challenging, and meaningful conversations that help you identify and overcome the barriers that have been getting in your way. Together, we work to build insight, strengthen resilience, and create new pathways toward the life you want to live. From the beginning, our therapeutic relationship is centered on partnership. We focus on understanding your goals, exploring what has been holding you back, and identifying the strengths you already possess. Therapy is not about perfection—it’s about progress, empowerment, and discovering what becomes possible when you have a safe space to explore, heal, and grow. If you’re seeking a therapist who will meet you where you are, honor your experiences, and walk with you as you create meaningful change, I would be honored to be part of your journey. My commitment is to offer individualized support that helps you move toward the version of yourself you’ve always hoped to become.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across the entire state. If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near your address.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

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. For example, your selected specialty, Addiction, is filtering therapists in Oregon that work with patients with similar concerns.

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.

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.
