Currently accepting new online clients only. Hello! You can call me Cat. I work with ages 10+ and specialize in bipolar disorder, major depression, and addiction. I am a compassionate and fun-loving therapist who welcomes everyone regardless of gender, race, identity, beliefs, or sexual orientation. This journey is about YOU and that is who I am here for. My passion lies in building meaningful and lasting therapeutic relationships with my clients. I take a humanistic and person-centered approach to treatment, focusing on you, your journey, your goals, and how to get there. (Don’t worry – we will figure that out together!)
I pride myself on being extremely open and relatable. With me you will get a fail-safe support system, an annoying personal cheerleader, and an unconditionally compassionate guide on this fun & terrifying ride we call life. If this sounds like what you need, send me a text at (512) 298-4798 and let's get started!
If there is any question I can answer for you, please reach out to me. You can text me at the number in the previous paragraph (preferred), or contact me through the call/email buttons listed at the top of my profile. If you call, PLEASE leave a voicemail so your call doesn't get lost in the sauce ;) I am very excited to hear from you soon!
