Getting to know Catherine McLaughlin

Hi there, I'm Catherine! Hello, I am Catherine McLaughlin, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from New York University. My work covers a range of mental health diagnoses such as anxiety, depression, codependency, grief, substance abuse, and alcohol addiction. I consider myself a kind, empathic, “say it like it is” therapist. I also have a respectful sense of humor when it’s needed. My approach Some of the therapeutic approaches I practice include humanistic, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, and mindfulness. I start where the client is and go from there. My concerns are always for my clients first and foremost! My focus I mostly work with clients who suffer from anxiety, depression, and substance abuse issues. In addition, I support clients who are grieving. While I am comfortable addressing many issues, my practice mainly focuses on these diagnoses. My communication style I work diligently with my clients to help them succeed on this journey and focus on a better life and happiness through goal setting and education. Ethics and confidentiality are the highest priorities in my practice. It is not easy to bring oneself in for help, so my welcome is always friendly and warm. I understand and appreciate how difficult it is to confide in someone you have just met. From past reviews, I often hear that most clients feel relaxed with my approach and “realness.” Clients have reported feeling comfortable with the amount of interest and compassion I demonstrate. My journey to therapy I was introduced to this profession because of experiences I have lived through in my own life. Therapy has always been a favorite of mine and has helped me. I felt a calling to help others with their problems and studied long and hard, combining education and life experience to pay it forward. I have never regretted one second working as an LCSW.
