Change is an inevitable part of life that can sometimes be scary, anxiety inducing, and difficult to cope with. Because change is often fraught with unknowns, I believe a strong therapeutic relationship – one that is built on trust, empathy, compassion, and non-judgement – is essential to the healing process. My focuses include working with adults of all ages to address a variety of concerns, such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem, and grief and loss. I also have experience working with individuals diagnosed with chronic or terminal illnesses, as well as their family members and caregivers.

I’m experienced with anxiety, depression, self esteem, career counseling, personal trauma, adjustment to disability, addiction, life transitions, geriatric/ seniors and other life conditions.
I’m a licensed professional counselor providing in person and virtual counseling services to help people in overcoming barriers to employment, trauma, life transitions, addiction, anxiety and depression. I like to create a collaborative relationship to assist people in discovering that their negative self talk can be their worst adversary. I work with couples to assist them in recognizing how they've fallen into patterns of disconnection and how to rebuild their emotional connections by developing new and expanded interaction patterns. As a certified personal trainer, I believe in the mind/body connection for health & healing.

My name is Caitlyn, and I’m here to hold a space where you can safely unpack the weight you’ve been carrying. Healing isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about honoring your story, processing grief and trauma at your own pace, and empowering you to reconnect with yourself.

I take a holistic perspective with my clients to address the health of body, mind, and spirit. I believe that a solid therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is a crucial part of the healing process, and that techniques and therapy approaches must “fit” the client in order to be effective—there is no “one size fits all” therapy. My goal, as a counselor and therapist, is to deeply understand my client, and when this happens we are able to identify areas of life that need to be changed, and ways of going about doing that. Therapy is a collaborative process between a trained therapist and a client who wants to change.
