Getting to know Catheryn Mcdermott

Hi there, I'm Catheryn! Hello. My name is Kati, and I am an LMHC here in Massachusetts. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Walden University. I also hold a bachelor’s degree from the College of Our Lady of the Elms. I tend to operate my practice with a focus on cognitive behavioral therapy as well as a person-centered approach. I want to work with you to achieve better mental health. I may pull from different therapeutic approaches to achieve that goal. For instance, we may challenge negative thoughts (a CBT technique), but we may also discuss things like using belly breathing for relaxation (a mindfulness technique). I may give you homework from time to time that we can explore further in upcoming sessions. I am also trauma-informed and will start with the subjects you feel most comfortable with. My approach As I mentioned, I tend to weigh heavily on cognitive behavioral therapy. That being said, I often pull from other modalities such as mindfulness and motivational interviewing. Above all, I firmly believe in providing trauma-informed care. I want to start with things you feel comfortable discussing and move from there. My main goal is to help you improve your mental health. My focus I have a lot of experience working with anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder. I also have experience working with vocational issues and relationship concerns. My communication style I have a direct yet supportive nature. I will not sugarcoat things for you, but I will also be gentle in my delivery. I want our work in therapy to be a collaboration. If you have questions or concerns, I encourage you to ask me. My journey to mental healthcare I have a great passion for helping people. I have a family member with a chronic mental illness, and I grew up seeing how differently he was treated. I went into this field to be a positive light to others.
