As a licensed therapist in New Jersey, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex transitions and emotional challenges. My professional approach centers on compassionate, holistic care for adults navigating diverse experiences—from young adulthood through midlife and beyond.
I have extensive expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, stress, parenting issues and grief. My practice focuses on helping clients work through communication difficulties, feelings of isolation, and challenges related to life purpose. I'm particularly skilled in supporting women's issues, family dynamics, relationship transitions like divorce, and caregiver stress.
My therapeutic work spans a wide range of sensitive experiences, including fertility challenges, pregnancy, aging, family of origin concerns, and end-of-life support. I approach each client's journey with deep empathy, creating a supportive environment where individuals can explore their emotions, develop resilience, and rediscover personal strength.
Through collaborative, personalized counseling, I aim to help clients understand themselves more deeply and develop meaningful strategies for emotional well-being and personal growth.

Cathy is so understanding and so helpful. She’s great at what she does and has been such a positive factor in my life since I started meeting with her almost a year ago. Cathy has seriously helped my headspace, and continues to do so each time we meet. Thank you, Cathy.

I just started with Catherine. She is very well spoken and easily relatable. Although we have just begun, I can tell that in the future she will help me further analyze situations that come up to help me deal with them in a healthy manner.
