Hi, I’m Catherine.
I’m a therapist, an artist, a curious human, and someone who delights in all things creative.
Over the past 20 years I’ve had the privilege of helping adults, teens, and kids navigate challenges, build skills, and develop resilience.
We spend so much of our lives trying to get ourselves right. Trying to be better, do better, think better, feel better. We analyze ourselves, pick ourselves apart, and wonder what’s wrong with us when we can’t seem to get it all together.
And somewhere along the way, we can forget that we’re already whole people. Messy, complicated, wonderful, occasionally ridiculous people who are just trying to figure things out.
I don’t think you need to be fixed. I think you deserve a space where you can stop trying so hard to fix yourself.
We heal through talking with one another. But sometimes words aren’t enough. We also heal through singing, painting, drawing, dancing, writing, music, and an infinite number of other creativeactivities. Your sessions with me might be conventional talk therapy. They might also incorporate mindfulness exercises, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), or gentle movement. Sometimes adults need permission to be creative and I create a safe space where we can do that.
Therapy, with room to be human.
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I bring my professional training and experience into my work.
But I also bring my curiosity, my creativity, my sense of humor, and my very human self.
You can come exactly as you are.
We can talk about the hard things. We can get curious about the patterns that keep showing up. We can sit with the things that feel confusing or uncomfortable.
And we can laugh, too.
I believe meaningful work doesn't always have to feel heavy. There's room for depth and lightness, reflection and play, serious conversations and the occasional wonderfully silly moment.
We get to be whole humans here. All of us.
