My Background and Approach
Catherine believes real change happens when people are equipped with the right tools that help them assess their inner self and therefore respond to life situations better. She uses a lot of CBT, DBT, and Solution focused therapy. In regards to couples counseling, Catherine primarily focuses on the Gottman Institute research principals. These principals include identifying individual and couple goals in areas of Conflict Resolution, Communication Skills, Increasing Positivity, and other aspects of the relationship. A focus on these goals will help create a specific treatment program that is more effective and sustainable. Solution-focused, Emotionally-focused, attachment styles and Cognitive Behavior Therapy is also integrated in sessions.
