Catherine is extremely supportive and responsive. She helps me to change my perspective and always gives me food for thought that I can take with me into the next week in between our video sessions. Very grateful to be working with her.

I just started seeing Catherine and I feel very good about my experience so far, I can't give an in depth review since we've just started out... but I gotta say that I feel really positive about this whole experience and Catherine seems like a great fit for my complicated needs!
