I am a licensed psychologist providing services across the lifespan, although my training has provided me with a strong understanding of child and adolescent development, school based difficulties, and learning differences. I completed my doctorate in School Psychology at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and my pre-doctoral clinical internship at the Carolina Institute for Developmental Disabilities (CIDD). My master’s degree was completed in Counseling & Guidance at New York University. I specialize in treating children and teens with neurodevelopmental disabilities, including ADHD and autism.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, flexible, and informed by evidence-based practices. I provide individual psychotherapy for children and adolescents to address a range of issues, including anxiety, depression, stress-related difficulties, academic challenges, emotional difficulties, behavioral challenges, and relationship challenges.
Together, we'll consider what isn’t working and develop insights for how to change. I combine multiple treatment techniques, including CBT, DBT, and other behavioral/solution-focused approaches. I would be happy to speak with you about ways we may be able to work together to meet your needs. You are welcome to call or email to set up an initial consultation.

Hello there! I am so very proud of you for taking a step towards gaining new coping skills, improving self-awareness and having improved mental health. Most therapist would like to have a motivated client who picks up on therapeutic concepts easily, but that's not how this thing works! I meet you where you currently are and I am prepared to walk beside you on this therapeutic journey.
Finding the right therapist is so important! Clients need to feel comfortable in order to talk about difficult things. I understand that getting started in counseling is not easy and I have so much respect for those willing to take that step! I want to help and I will walk alongside you without judgment. My style is relaxed and supportive. Clients describe me as down to earth, easy to to talk to and authentic. My specialty is working with people through life transitions.

Hello, and welcome to my page! I am Catherine, however most people just call me Cat. I understand life can be challenging, full of ups and downs, and that change is difficult to manage! I want you to know that you are not alone, I am here for you, and together we can make it through! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I have worked as a therapist within the mental health profession since 2007. I have a bachelor’s degree in social work from Appalachian State University and a master’s degree in social work from The University of South Carolina in Columbia. I love working with people and coming along beside them as a support through life's up's and down's. I have experiencing working in many different settings with individuals and families who have a variety of personal issues such as life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, stress management, grief and loss, relationship issues, domestic violence, divorce care, spirituality, stress, anger management, family conflict, parenting, foster care support, overcoming conflict and challenges, and life coaching. I would describe my approach as empathetic, supportive, and person centered. I often use techniques that are derived from Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness Therapy, and Trauma Focused Therapy when working with individuals and families. Together, we will identify your current needs and/or challenges and work together to create goals and identify treatment techniques that will help you reach your desired outcome. Through my years in counseling, I have learned that one of the most important factors of success is making a connection and feelings comfortable with the person you choose to work with. In addition, I feel like you are the expert of your life and you have the answers within yourself; however sometimes it take someone coming along beside you to provide the support needed to help guide you to find those answers. I would love to get to know you and to have the opportunity to be a support for you through this journey called life!
I have been working with adults and children in various social work capacities for over 30 years. In 2010 I opened my own clinical practice and have learned and benefited as much from my clients as I believe they have benefited from me by continuing to update my training, being fully present, respectful and supportive in each session and honoring each individual's unique needs.
