Hello and welcome! I’m Cat and I work with adults and teens who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, out of control, emotionally dysregulated and unfulfilled. I love working with people who have always felt different and have struggled to find meaning, purpose, and belonging in life. My philosophy as an existential therapist is that emotional distress can stem from a mismatch between the life we are currently living and the life we really want for ourselves. I believe the best place for healing is the place where you feel true alignment with your values, goals, identity, relationships, and desires. I want to help you get there.
So, let’s talk about all of the tough stuff you’ve gone through, past and present. Let’s figure out what has been getting in your way and what areas of your mind, heart & soul need a little love and attention. Let’s discover a path through the obstacles, dive deep into life’s big questions and get you back to living a life that feels more authentically you.
I love to work with the black sheep, the nontraditional, the “weirdos” and the ones who feel out of place. Therapy is a space where you can be fully seen, supported and celebrated, exactly as you are. If any of my words have resonated with you, it may be a sign to reach out and get your therapy journey started. I’ll be here for you as soon as you’re ready.
