It's a gift to get to support folks through big life changes & challenging times, whether it's deconstructing from a high-control religion, coming out (even to oneself) as queer or trans, exploring new relationship structures like ethical non-monogamy / polyamory, and/or starting to understand oneself through the lens of neurodiversity. I also enjoy helping folks identify new coping skills to reduce reliance on self-injury or disordered eating. I love getting to know my clients, reflect their strengths back to them, and partner with them to take steps to building a life that feels aligned with their values and dreams.
My practice is rooted in DBT because dialectical thinking - the notion that multiple seemingly opposing things can coexist - changed my life. Lately I've grown more interested in bottom-up modalities that use the body as a resource for healing (like somatic therapy). I also love using IFS to help folks understand the multitudes we all contain.
As an ADHD-er myself, my brain moves quickly, so my sessions are conversational without a ton of silent space. I stay curious, I ask a lot of questions, and I can be pretty directive. I'm not for everyone (nobody is!) but if you think I might be for you, let's chat! I welcome a "vibe check" and any questions you might have.

Cat brings warmth and genuine curiosity to complex identity and life transitions. Her conversational, directive style creates a space where people exploring identity, neurodivergence, or breaking free from limiting beliefs feel genuinely understood.

Stellar clinician and advocate for her clients. I have had the pleasure to both collaborate and supervise Cat and couldn't recommend her highly enough for LGBTQ folks with a history of religious trauma and beyond.

I was trained in CBT first, then DBT, so these modalities are my foundation. While my whole practice is very DBT-informed, I've enjoyed learning about and incorporating IFS ("parts work"), somatic interventions, and narrative therapy as well. Above all else, I'm a relational therapist, so I care a lot about my clients and view our relationship as it's own tool for change.
