About Catherine

Catherine Barbour is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She earned a BA from Emory University in 1999 and a Master of Social Work from the University of Central Florida in 2008. Her career has spanned diverse settings, including an outdoor therapeutic program working with teens, in-home counseling with children and families, and medical social work within a hospital system.

She has supported adolescents, parents, older adults, and entire families through a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, substance use, ADHD, anger management, abuse and neglect, family communication difficulties, grief and loss, and the psychological effects of chronic health conditions. Her work draws on a strengths-based perspective and an eclectic therapeutic style that adapts to each person she meets.

Catherine uses solution-focused techniques, cognitive behavioral methods, and trauma-informed brief therapy to address immediate problems while also helping clients clarify longer term goals. She approaches every individual as unique and partners with them to both manage current challenges and pursue the life changes they want to make, offering practical, compassionate support throughout the process.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and respect for each person's experience, helping clients explore values, strengthen self-awareness, and build confidence to make meaningful changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and related concerns. Trauma-focused therapy helps individuals process traumatic events and develop skills to manage the ongoing emotional and behavioral effects of trauma and abuse.

The therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which approach or combination of approaches is the best fit based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows for adjustments over time so that therapy remains practical and goal-oriented.

Online therapy makes these approaches more accessible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility for scheduling, ease of access for clients with caregiving or mobility constraints, and multiple ways to communicate depending on what feels most comfortable. Licensed professionals can tailor sessions to the format that best supports a client's progress and daily life.
