Great to meet you!

I understand how heavy life can feel, especially when you're managing anxiety, struggling with focus, trying to make sense of this world or figuring out who you are. You don't have to go on this journey alone. I'm here to offer a safe space for you to explore, process, grow, and heal. My hope is that our work together not only helps you survive but THRIVE!

Hi! I'm Dr. Catherine Teotico-Lee (she/her).I am a licensed clinical psychologist, specializing in culturally grounded, evidence-based therapy. My expertise includes ADHD, anxiety, and racial and cultural issues. As a Filipino-American first-generation immigrant, I also bring personal and professional expertise in Asian American and immigrant mental health.

My approach to therapy

I am a firm believer that although I have expertise in psychology, you are the expert of your own life. Everyone has a unique journey and have different outcomes they would like to see in their life. Therapy is the place to explore what is important to you, how you want to see your life shake out, and what steps to take to move you towards the life you want to live. We are partners in your journey. At times, I might challenge you to help move you along but ultimately, we decide together on the next steps to achieve your dreams.

What you can expect from me

At the heart of my practice is the belief that your story and goals are shaped by your unique experiences, culture, and background. In our first session, we’ll explore this story to build a foundation. After that, we’ll focus on what matters most to you. I’ll be your partner and cheerleader as you work toward the changes you want. My hope is that by the end, you’ll have greater self-understanding, practical tools to thrive, and a clear direction that aligns with your values.
