This is my first time meeting with a therapist of any kind, I went in with skepticism and doubt that anything would help. Catherine was a great listener and had empathy for my situation. She gave me some goals to try to meet in order to help me get through the tough days. I felt better after our session, and could say I am happy I chose her. She's easy to talk to and I would definitely recommend her.

She was absolutely wonderful

Catherine, was a very good therapist. She always knew how I was feeling just seeing my face. I'm a 61yr old woman. I was not sure if she would understand me being so much younger. Well I'm so happy to say I really think that she could work with anyone and any age. She is also very kind, she really cares. I had a history of attempting suicide . If I was having a hard day she would ask me if I was thinking of hurting myself and she would ask if she could call me the next day. She always did.. She is really great. My last psychiatrist I was with for 20 years before he passed away. I never thought I would find someone to help me like he did. Well I was wrong Catherine did. She is definitely an asset to you business. Thank you Judi.

My visit was fully virtual. Catherine was good at working around my schedule and taking my last minute appointments. She told me all the right things and gave me really good advice. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met and she will be very missed. I honestly don’t think I’ll ever find another pure and genuine soul like hers.
