Catherine (Cathy) Stansell. LMFT. I view therapy as a collaboration between client and therapist. I am a warm and caring therapist, who is client-centered and believes in strength-based approaches. I work with adults with anxiety, depression, PTSD/Trauma, as well as LBGTQ in a variety of settings. I typically work with clients who have a history of trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, and managing anxiety. Clients I work with are very motivated to make changes in their lives.
My therapeutic approach is to work together as a team. Building trust and communicating effectively with one another. The most common theoretical approaches I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Therapy as a road map for meeting client therapy goals.
I create a caring and supportive environment. My clients and I have a mutual dialogue discussing their therapy agenda. I believe in being authentic and creating a safe environment so my clients can express themselves without being judged and embracing a caring environment.
