Get to know Catherine Katie
Why did you decide to become a counselor?
I've always felt called into a helping profession and I am so thankful for having had counselors throughout the years who have helped me navigate some difficult life stages.
What types of clients do you work with best?
I have yet to come across a client I didn't 'work well' with, but I think I generally am a good fit for people who are open minded to discussing tough issues, examining patterns of behaviors that no longer serve them, and are willing to make changes incrementally to begin to see progress.
What type of clients are you most excited to work with?
I love working with clients who are motivated to take a look into patterns of behaviors and problem solve ways to begin implementing changes to address their life challenges.
What can clients expect in their first session with you?
The first session is information gathering and getting to know one another. You determine if I'll be a good for you, and if not, we discuss the next steps and I'll help you find someone who is. It's pretty laid back, honestly.
What do you want to accomplish with an individual in their first session?
I'd like to make you feel comfortable in working with me and hopeful for the ability to change and move forward.
What do you do for fun/on your time off?
I love hiking, hanging out with friends and my husband, traveling, finding new music to obsess over, and honestly, just relaxing and enjoying the moment.
