Catherine Smiley

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Colorado. I graduated from Salve Regina University with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling and attended University of Rhode Island where I completed my undergraduate studies, double majoring in Psychology and Human Development & Family Studies. I have 4 years of experience working with a wide range of individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, feeling stuck, and general life transitions. I am a queer-identifying therapist, also having a special interest and experience in working with the LGBTQIA+ population.

I love walking alongside clients, working to unearth innate coping strategies and collaboratively develop new ways of seeing themselves, the world, and their place within it. I use client-centered therapy and holistic methods in my practice and believe it is necessary to integrate mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional forms of well-being to help clients develop a deeper understanding of themselves on all of these levels.

Catt strives to create an environment of safety, acceptance, validation, humor, and empathic understanding.
