Life is complex, and at times, it is also overwhelming. You may feel stuck, or as if you are caught between two or more strong forces pulling you in different directions. I believe that therapy can be a potent, collaborative process in which we can work together to untangle the different components of your concerns, to sit in tension with these components without becoming overwhelmed, and to restore peace in your life. I enjoy working with all issues affected by social identities, such as gender and sexuality, and I specialize in men's issues.

When human beings experience trauma or severe stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My great passion is bringing healing to people who have been through traumatic experiences like grief, depression or self harm when they are feeling like they are not enough, or anxiety in social or life adjustments. I wish to help children of ages 7+, teens 12-18, and adults/adolescents 18-30 to find perceptions about themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can know themselves and feel whole and safe.

My approach is totally tailored to you. It is as unique as you are. You are yourself and there is only one like you- YOU! It is non-judgmental in nature and I will meet you where you are and will go at a pace that is comfortable for you. Therefore, I take the time to truly understand you, your thought processes, your personality, and unique life experiences. I am interested in honoring your past and how it affects your present. Clearing out the “clutter” you may have gathered will help you reach a clean slate. Then the potential for a new level of creating, clarity and consciousness can be added to your future.

I believe the problems we face in our relationships derive from unmet emotional needs. Some of the needs we have look like feeling heard, feeling understood, feeling loved, etc. If you have these needs and you are feeling that they are unmet, you have come to the right place.

I'm Calien, but you can call me Cat! I’m a down-to-earth LPC-A, but I’m not your typical therapist. I don’t believe that therapy should be some intimidating experience full of stale clinical talk. I personally think the coolest thing about therapy is the freedom to say whatever the hell is on your mind without judgment. The real world needs real therapy from real people. You get what you see with me, and I genuinely want to see you, the real you. I take a Holistic approach to counseling and I am known for my authenticity, genuine kindness, and empathy.

In my work, I want to understand your brain functioning, as well as how information flows. Perhaps your brain is functioning well but processing the information that comes in is a struggle. Or perhaps you have a peak performing brain in terms of how information is processed, but it is not functioning to its peak level. As a client, you have been to countless doctors, and therapists, as well as other types of treatment. And yet you STILL can't seem to get stabilized or feel like your life is on track. Medications might work a little - but really don’t seem to solve the struggle. and you just want to feel normal and feel GOOD!

Hi! You've made it. Life can be overwhelming especially when we experience anxiety, racing thoughts, sadness and doubt. Then we try to forget what happened to us, but somehow it's not happening. My goal is to help you reconnect with what is important to you. We all need a safe space and healthy support while healing pain and learning new way to cope. Sometimes we just need a little extra encouragement and therapeutics to heal and grow without shame and judgement.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the US, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
