Struggling with anxiety or depression? Dealing with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)? Recovering from a traumatic experience (PTSD)? Stuck in an unhealthy routine? With 15+ years of experience, I provide Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in a supportive environment, encouraging change at a pace that feels right for you. I am highly skilled with CBT and have extensive training with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and other exposure based approaches.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who values individualized, person-centered psychotherapy where the therapeutic relationship is the catalyst for change, growth, and healing. I have worked with varying age groups across residential, in-home, and outpatient settings. I specialize in treating adolescents, young adults, and adults struggling with OCD, substance use, depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, and difficult life circumstances.

Living with anxiety, fear, trauma or OCD can be lonely and overwhelming and trying to manage on your own can be so hard. You don't have to struggle like this. Let's work together to cultivate the tools you need to live the life you want.

Hello and welcome! I specialize in evidence-based treatments for OCD and anxiety. Outside of my private practice, I am also on faculty at Harvard Medical School and Massachusetts General Hospital. Anxiety and fear can limit our lives in a number of ways, leading us to withdraw from people and activities we care about. In therapy, we will use cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), exposure therapy, mindfulness techniques, and emotion regulation skills to work toward approaching difficult situations, changing unhelpful behaviors, and building a life worth living.

I offer individual, couples & group psychotherapy to adults and adolescents, taking an integrative holistic approach to treatment. If you are navigating challenges with anxiety, OCD, depression, family/relationship conflicts, trauma, women's issues, low self-esteem, impulsivity, or a life transition, we may be a good fit! My expertise is in integrative psychotherapy, where I draw from a variety of modalities, including CBT, DBT, mindfulness, ACT, relational & strengths-based approaches to provide individualized treatment. If you have a spiritual practice or faith, I also incorporate your faith and spiritual practices into our work.

I currently direct and treat patients at the Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders (CARD) at Boston University. We provide evidence-based clinical services - primarily CBT, to individuals of all backgrounds. CBT is a skills based therapy meant to enhance coping strategies for those suffering from emotional difficulties. It focuses on understanding the connections between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in order to foster positive changes. At CARD, we specialize in helping adults and children address a wide range of anxiety disorders and related challenges such as difficulties with mood, sleep, concentration, and pain.

Hello there! I'm Catherine, a Mental Health Therapist at The Community Clinic. I enjoy working with diverse communities, and specialize in helping those seeking to heal from anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, poor body image and disordered eating. I help my clients understand that therapy is a personal process, and emphasize the importance of honoring your own pace and boundaries. Pushing yourself too hard or rushing the healing process may be counterproductive. My work involves providing guidance and support, so you can learn to give yourself permission to take breaks, reinforce boundaries, and prioritize self-care.

I believe everyone deserves a warm, safe space to process life's experiences! I will work with you in a collaborative manner that often involves education, encouragement, humor, and careful listening. Together, we will connect to your emotional experience, explore why certain patterns of thinking and behaving exist, heal wounds of the past, and create meaningful change for you. My focus is on supporting teens and young adults to compassionately navigate things like anxiety, depression, trauma, life stressors/transitions, self worth, identity, and relationships.

First I want to say you have already taken the most important step by admitting you could use help. I appreciate it can be overwhelming so I strongly encourage you to not give up too soon. I specialize in helping individuals through tough transitions. I am experienced helping people who are trying to live their life in a way that fits their goals and values.

Dedicating time and attention to our own needs can feel overwhelming for so many of us. My goal is to support and challenge you as you jump into the journey of self-advocacy and compassion. I work alongside you as you come through the moments that feel endless, the emotions that feel confusing, and the thoughts that feel overpowering. Together, we can identify strategies to find clarity within your emotions.

Individual clients welcome. In my professional journey, I've had the privilege of guiding thousands of clients from diverse backgrounds, each with their own unique stories and challenges. I help individuals cultivate a deep understanding of their emotions, fostering emotional intelligence that is crucial for personal growth. I strive to create a space where feelings are acknowledged and processed, to clear a path for success. Embracing wellbeing as a fundamental aspect of strength is at the heart of my approach. The goal is for you to become an insightful expert of your own life - past, present and future.

Are you experiencing attention or memory issues, brain fog, or other cognitive-based difficulties? Are these impacting your relationships, job/career success, or self-esteem? I conduct neuropsychological evaluations through comprehensive testing, after which I provide tailored recommendations based on your own relative strengths and areas of needed improvement. I also regularly see people who are recovering from brain injury (TBI/concussions, head trauma, new-onset neurological diagnoses), who might be struggling with cognitive, emotional, and/or psychological recovery.

I draw from several approaches, informed by your preferences, strengths and challenges. I focus on finding the appropriate balance between addressing present moment challenges, developing insight and perspective, and healing from past challenges. The approaches I use include: IFS, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, EMDR, ACT, MBCT, and Client Centered Therapy.

I specialize in working with anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Tired of worrying and fixating on things you could have done better? Navigating emotional challenges can be exhausting, with anxiety manifesting in over thinking, perfectionism, and procrastination. You are not alone. Therapy is a chance to make meaningful changes in your life and heal reoccurring patterns standing in your way. I believe growth happens when you feel like you have a warm and compassionate therapist to help work through the hard stuff. I get that, and I place a premium on holding that safe space for you.

Specializing in diverse communities, I guide individuals through their paths of healing and personal growth. If you are grappling with anxiety, low self-esteem, or disordered eating, I am here to support and empower you. My therapeutic approach emphasizes self-care, the importance of setting healthy boundaries, and leveraging self-compassion as a powerful motivator for change. Together, we will work towards fostering a healthy relationship with your body, building resilience, and navigating the complexities of your life with newfound insight and support.

I am currently not accepting new clients. I no longer accept insurances, but am still a Give-An-Hour provider for current clients and provide a sliding fee scale.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or anxious? Hoping to talk through and better understand patterns you notice? I am here and trained to help. We will work collaboratively to build skills to best meet your needs, hopes, and goals while exploring and building insight to better understand yourself. Together we will work to best support you as you navigate different life phases, relationships, and environments. I specialize in working with young adults traversing school, work, and life challenges. I have extensive training and experience working with the LGBTQIA+ community.
