Testimonials

“"Therapy has been a transformative journey for me, especially as I navigated the complex grief stemming from family drama. Cathy has taught me the importance of setting healthy boundaries, empowering me to prioritize my own well-being".”

Jolie, struggling with family conflict and self-care.

“"I have learned so much about myself and how my brain works with Cathy. Discovering a late adult diagnosis of ADHD in my 40's was hard for me to accept. I have learned how to work with my strengths instead of trying to work against them". ”
