Life can be extremely difficult to navigate at times, especially when going through major life transitions. Sometimes we feel numb or stuck and can’t figure out how to move forward or what to do next. I can help you navigate the choppy waters whether it’s from the loss of a loved one, relationship issues, or emotions that seem overwhelming. My personal and professional experiences have helped me understand that life can often make us feel lost. It challenges us and often makes us question who we are.

Did you struggle to build essential life skills due to growing up without much support or adequate psychological nurturance? Or you were born in a healthy and loving family, but life did not turn as planned? Feeling stuck in life, having lost its purpose, feeling lonely and unable to build or maintain healthy relationships, going through a loss (of a loved one, an opportunity, a job, an ability, or even a dream), all of these can take your energy and prevent you from living your best life. Turning a crisis into an opportunity can be a painful process.

Are you feeling stuck? Do you have a desire for change, but are unsure where to start? Let’s be honest for a moment. Life is hard. Sometimes we need extra support. My passion has always been to work with individuals seeking to live their best lives. I specialize in helping individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, relationship issues, and pregnancy (perinatal, infertility, pregnancy loss and postpartum issues.) I have a special interest in women’s issues. I have had a corporate career, and particularly enjoy helping women navigate the challenges of balancing multiple roles and life transitions.

I have a background in clinical Social Work, specializing in Behavioral Health during my education in Boston, MA. I have acute care experience working with a diverse population of clients with anxiety, depression, post-partum depression, and clients who have experienced trauma. I would love to meet with you and provide a supportive and safe environment to meet your goals.

Welcome. Through the hustle and bustle of life it is often the case that we neglect to take the time for ourselves to allow for self care let alone allow time to nurture our mental health. We sometimes forget that in order to do our best for others we must first assure that we are taking care of ourselves. My mission is to assist a wide variety of clients in working through issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, self esteem issues, and general life stressors in order to allow clients to examine and explore ways in which to live their best lives.

Sometimes even the strongest people need help to work through life’s more challenging problems. I offer psychotherapy to children, teens, adults, couples, and families, using a variety of modalities such as psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, play therapy, and family systems approaches. Working collaboratively, I tailor therapy to successfully address the client’s individual needs and goals. I also offer consultation with interested colleagues on issues involved in diagnosis and therapy, working with allied professionals, and encounters with the legal system.

If you feel like you “have it all,” but you can’t shake this nagging feeling that something is missing, feel overwhelmed trying to manage your multiple roles (parent, spouse, partner, friend, co-worker), or are struggling to navigate fertility treatment as a queer person, get pregnant, be pregnant, or transition into parenthood, I can help. I don't practice one-size-fits-all therapy. I’ll follow your lead and use the creative process as a guide in sharing your experiences. I work with adults seeking support for perinatal mental health, trauma, and overall wellbeing with LGBTQIA+ affirming art therapy and counseling.

I am a bilingual (fluent Spanish Speaker) Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Virginia and provide Individual counseling to young adults and adults. My work as a counselor reflects my compassionate nature and desire to be authentic, and develop impactful relationships with clients. Core to my approach is being person-centered and culturally competent/sensitive.

Hello, welcome to therapy. If you are seeking therapy, you may be struggling with some heavy and complicated feelings and need someone to talk to without fear of being judged. My approach is gentle, yet full of energy, enthusiasm, and determination. ​In other words, I will take a "spirited" approach to helping you, at your own pace, take an active role in your own healing. My goal for you is to not be in therapy for years and years, but to learn the techniques you can use on your own to deepen self awareness and live life through the eyes of your Authentic Self.

Therapy is an unusual process; there is nothing like it in day to day life. You come to a professional who focuses solely on you, your past, your future, your health, your goals and your perspective. Whatever you have been through, whatever you are trying to become, my goal is to do everything we can together to inspire you, to help you realize you can, and to help you know deep down that you are worth it. I will facilitate your understanding of your emotional (or lack of emotional) responses. You will learn the tools you need to heal from the trauma learning of the past and move forward, free to engage in life on your terms.

I meet my clients in their desire for change and strive to understand their experience of the world. I work to support my clients by forming a trust-based relationship to create a healing environment where compassion and kindness become healing agents. I utilize a variety of expressive modalities meeting the needs of my clients. I believe in the power of people's inner strengths and resources and work to explore these with my clients while empowering them in reaching their goals for change.

I offer clients a safe and non judgmental space to explore thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Sessions can be used to explore experiences in relationships, feelings of stress, desired changes, or symptoms associated with mental health. Clients who are interested in additional self-exploration can benefit from my talk-therapy approaches, as well as exploring emotions through the art making process. Art therapy is a creative option for clients who may feel stuck and can’t find the words to describe how they are feeling or for clients who desire visual and hands-on modes of processing.

Life circumstances can sometimes leave you feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, unheard, and disconnected. As difficult as seeking help may be, it is the first step to moving towards healing and healthier relationship with self and others. My clients are seeking a safe, non-judgmental, and culturally sensitive space that leaves them feeling heard, validated, and connected. My specialties include relationship and familial issues, mood and anxiety disorders, children of divorce, trauma, women dealing with divorce, and couples. I am extensively trained in attachment and systems modalities, trauma-informed interventions, and mindfulness.

Often, people realize at some point in their lives that they would like professional assistance in order to successfully navigate or cope with overwhelming situations, strained interpersonal relationships, or distressing emotional responses to their environment (e.g., sadness or excessive worrying). In addition, most people are also confronted by situations in which past experiences inform their current reactions, responses, and behaviors. Therapy can help individuals to develop awareness and insight into their emotions and behavior, feel hopeful, enact change, and live a more satisfying and fulfilling life.

Emotional issues are a community matter that affects us all. I am dedicated to meeting your needs through support, education, and direct services. I believe in a new high standard of response, helping you at the earliest stage and preventing unnecessary impairment and suffering for you and your family. I specialize in relationships, depression, anxiety, and family violence. I also assist with immigration and home studies. My main goal is to ensure you live a happy life, free of pain and negativity. You are not alone. We can walk together until you feel ready to fly. Cynthia V. Catchings, LCSW-S, CMHIMP, CLYL, CFTP, CMS, EMDR-T

I am currently full but can add anyone to my waitlist per request. Through a caring and collaborative relationship, I aim to hold a safe space in which you can develop new coping skills and perspectives, safely process trauma at your own pace, and improve overall well-being. As a licensed professional counselor and art therapist, I specialize in working with adults and teens experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, relationship conflicts, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. I have a deep capacity to support clients who have been told that their story is "too much" for others to hold, as well as those who feel they are "not enough."
