You are welcome exactly as you are.

Life can bring many unexpected emotions, events, and challenges to the table. No matter who you are, how you identify, or what you are searching for, I strive to create an environment where you feel safe, affirmed, and celebrated as a client.

This is a collaborative journey, and taking the first step can feel intimidating. I became a therapist because I firmly believe it takes just one person who truly listens to make a profound difference. I began my path in social work, drawn to its collaborative nature and the power of working directly within the community.

Over time, I realized I wanted to work with clients to focus on individual needs. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, financial or career stress, relationship dynamics, or exploring your identity, our sessions will entirely revolve around what is best for you. Therapy is a collaborative experience designed to create a plan as unique as you are.

What will therapy look like?

To support your specific goals, we will use evidence-based modalities that are specific to your unique journey, including:

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): To help you reframe thought patterns that may be creating challenges and barriers, and to help build coping strategies for anxiety and stress.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): To assist you in navigating difficult emotions as they arise, and aligning your actions with your core values.
Trauma-Informed Care: To provide a safe space for processing your past trauma, and working toward helping you regain a sense of safety in your mind and body.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): To work together on skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness, helping you navigate intense feelings and relationship dynamics.

Testimonials

I absolutely adore her. She has such a comforting aura. She always listens and helps me understand my own thoughts and problems. Plus, she let's me go off on tangents on all my recent hyper-fixations without judgment.

I cannot recommend my Caitlin highly enough. She truly excels in creating a safe and supportive environment where I feel completely heard and understood. Every session is a meaningful experience as she genuinely listens to my concerns and validates my feelings. What sets her apart is her ability to help me hold myself accountable while gently guiding me to see things from different perspectives. Her insightful approach has been transformative for my personal growth.

I met Caitlin a year ago. Her professional demeanor, combined with her genuine concern for her clients, makes her an outstanding mental health professional. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking support in managing stress or improving their relationships.

Caitlin was great. I felt like she really listened to me and understood me. We bonded over our love for our kitty cats!

CS

While Caitlin is my first therapist, I still can confidently say that she is among the best out there. I was very nervous to begin sessions, and from our very first session she made me feel comfortable and confident enough to open up, which has led to incredibly helpful and healing sessions. Caitlin is really excellent at helping you reflect on things that you may take for granted

MS

Caitlin is amazing! I’ve only seen her a few times, but I can feel she is really making a difference in my life. I’ve seen other people over the years, but none of them compare. Caitlin possesses professionalism, yet she has a realness about her and she’s genuinely caring. Qualities like these are what you hope to find in a therapist. I wish I had seen Caitlin years ago.

JG

Caitlin is a mental health provider who gets it. She was able to understand me as a fellow queer person from a conservative religious background. In our sessions, we’ve worked through me finding home in myself. And also how to find my way back there when I feel disconnected. I can’t recommend Caitlin enough.

RO

My sessions with Caitlin have been nothing but great. She makes me feel so comfortable in our conversations and that helps me open up to her more and more. I could not have asked for a better person. I’m very grateful for her.

KT

I love her!! So excited for her help in my self discovery journey 🙂

Why do I believe in therapy?

It is important to me to continue learning about you and your needs. Honesty, authenticity, and being human with you is important in session. As we work toward your goals, you can expect a continuous commitment to understanding your specific needs, your culture, and how your work and personal life experiences affect your day to day life.

Creating a strictly non-judgmental, inclusive space is the highest priority, and you will always have a dedicated advocate in your corner.

You don’t have to face this alone.

When beginning therapy, it can feel like the person across from you could never understand what you have been through. When I started college, my own life changed in ways I never could have imagined, and I initially felt that therapy couldn’t help me the way I needed it to. Having personally navigated anxiety, depression, and PTSD, I know how impossible it can feel to overcome these challenges.

With time and the right therapeutic support, it is entirely possible to discover a sense of empowerment and strength over your own mind and body. Inspired by the life changing care received from helping professionals, we can work together to help you find your own sense of strength and empowerment.
