Getting to know Catherine Haralson
Welcome! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 28+ years of experience, and I’ve had the privilege of serving clients in California for nearly three decades—longer than I’ve lived anywhere else. I've worked in a variety of settings from psychiatric hospitals and emergency rooms to outpatient clinics, jails, and community health centers. No matter where I’ve been, my passion has always been helping people heal, grow, and find hope.
I work with adults of all ages—whether you’re 18 or 98, I believe age is just a number, and what matters most is where you want to go from here. I specialize in supporting those who have faced trauma, including childhood abuse, military service, serious accidents, and other life-altering events. I also have extensive experience helping people navigate grief and loss, depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and more. I truly enjoy working with individuals as well as couples—whether you come alone or together, we can explore what matters most to you.
My approach to therapy is collaborative and interactive. We’re in this together, and I’m here to support you every step of the way. I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, prolonged exposure therapy, and relaxation skills. Mostly, I bring compassion, and listening.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked on crisis teams, partnered with law enforcement, and responded to emergencies in homes, hospitals, and even at Ground Zero in New York City after 9/11. These experiences have shaped my understanding of trauma and resilience, and I continue to use the skills I’ve learned to help clients through life’s most challenging moments.
If you’re ready to take the next step, Let’s work together to move forward—wherever you want your journey to go.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider's self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan's benefits.
