Meet Catherine
Catherine feels most herself amongst the quiet serenity that only nature can offer. From the vast beauty in mountain ranges to the ethereal joy in a wildflower, nature has provided Catherine with the same hope and inspiration she aspires to bring to the room as a therapist. The blue iris encompasses Catherine’s expectations for her work as it symbolizes creativity, belief, and faith in happiness. She hopes to provide a space where individuals can safely reconcile the obstacles and challenges of life with its beauty.
Catherine graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Georgia. She received her Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Graduate Certificate in Trauma Therapy from Richmont Graduate University. Catherine has worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families in community-based and school-based settings. Catherine now works in private practice with adolescents and adults who need support navigating life transitions, family conflict, grief, depression, anxiety, and PTSD.
Catherine utilizes individual talk therapy, art therapy, and group and family interventions to support the growth and healing of her clients. She is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and uses this evidence-based practice when working with trauma.
Catherine also uses Emotion Focused Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy regularly in her work. In her free time, Catherine enjoys mountain biking, skiing, and spending time with her two dogs, Lewis and Clark.
