More about Catherine
- 6 years' experience

- LCPC
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC) in the state of Illinois. I have worked with both adolescents and adults across extended residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient levels of care. I have supported individuals navigating challenges such as substance use and behavioral addictions, depression, anxiety, trauma, identity concerns, interpersonal struggles, shame, and codependency.
My therapeutic approach is warm, relational, and collaborative. I emphasize self-advocacy while tailoring support to each person’s unique needs. Drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities, I tend to incorporate motivational interviewing, attachment theory, IFS/parts work, DBT, CBT, ACT, and client-centered techniques into my therapeutic practice.
I believe it takes strength and courage to ask for help and think it’s amazing you were willing to take this first step. I am here to further support you and walk alongside you during this journey of growth and discovery.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
