About Catherine

Catherine Denham is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience supporting people through difficult life seasons. She practices in Florida and brings a calm, attentive presence to therapy. Her work often centers on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, trauma and relationship struggles.

Catherine uses a straightforward approach that helps people name what feels hard and try small, doable strategies. She focuses on building a trusting connection first. From there she helps clients practice tools for managing strong feelings and making clearer choices.

Her background includes work in outpatient, inpatient and school settings, plus in-home services and telehealth. That range has shaped a flexible style that aims to meet people where they are. She draws on approaches like attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior skills, and mindfulness practices.

In sessions she emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and practical steps. She helps people find their own voice and notice patterns that get in the way. Sessions are paced to the person’s needs, with an eye toward coping skills and clearer decision-making.

Catherine also supports people facing parenting and family stress, ADHD challenges, identity issues for LGBT clients, and compassion fatigue. Her goal is to help people take small steps toward more steady day-to-day functioning and greater self-understanding.

How Catherine’s approaches translate to online therapy

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions typically break problems into small steps and teach practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and reactions in close connections. In remote sessions this approach involves talking through relationship patterns and practicing new ways of relating and communicating.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape a plan that can change over time as new needs come up.

Many people find online therapy easier to fit into busy lives. It can reduce travel time and make scheduling simpler. Before booking, confirm which session formats are currently offered so you know what will work best. Online sessions can make it easier to keep up with regular check-ins and practice skills between meetings, while still allowing flexibility for appointments that fit into a typical day.
