About me

As a licensed therapist in Michigan with two decades of clinical experience, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice focuses on helping clients develop resilience and self-compassion, particularly when facing life transitions, communication challenges, and personal growth opportunities.

I bring a compassionate and direct approach to therapy, with expertise in addressing anxiety, self-esteem concerns, and panic-related experiences. My work centers on empowering women to cultivate stronger self-understanding, improve interpersonal relationships, and develop meaningful coping strategies.

My therapeutic style emphasizes creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients can explore their experiences, heal from past challenges, and build sustainable emotional wellness. I'm committed to walking alongside individuals as they rediscover their inner strength and create positive, transformative life changes.

Catherine is thoughtful and caring. I would recommend her to family and friends.

Written on Aug 02, 2025 after therapy with Catherine for 2 years and 6 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety

Catherine always made me feel safe and I never felt embarrassed or judged. This was my first experience with therapy, and I couldn’t have asked for a better first therapist. Through therapy, I learned that I identify as an empath, and how important it is for me to protect my energy, and she gave resources for how to do just that. I work a very high stress job where I manage and interact with many different people. Catherine helped me with many tools to help get me out of my constant state of “fight or flight.” I always got something out of our sessions. She holds you accountable, yet also supportive. Very responsive to messages.

Catherine has literally and figuratively saved my life. She has listened to me and given me the validation that I have been looking for for years. No one has ever made me feel as heard as Catherine. She has real skill and real knowledge that can genuinely help someone with mental illness. I’m now healing from trauma that I never even realized I had. I have hope for the future. Thank you Catherine!
