Great to meet you!

Hi! I am Cathleen. I have over 12 years experience as a licensed mental health counselor. Before that I worked in the foster care system. I have worked with children, adults, and families helping them navigate life’s challenges such as anxiety and depression due to trauma. The last few years I have worked with many individuals from the LGBTQ community and found I am passionate about providing supportive and gender affirming care.

My approach to therapy

I tailor my approach to counseling to fit the personality of each client. Some approaches work well for some clients, but not for others. I provide and inclusive and supportive environment specializing in anxiety, trauma, and depression.

What you can expect from me
