Welcome and thank you for visiting my website! I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am a Licensed Psychologist (PY10145) in Florida with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. During that time, I have assisted teens, adults, and couples with a wide range of emotional issues and concerns, including depression, anxiety, anger management, relationship problems, stress management, substance abuse/addiction, life transitions and parenting issues.
I consider the client/therapist relationship to be the most fundamental element for meaningful change and healing in therapy, so I strive to provide a warm and non-judgmental atmosphere where trust between client and therapist can be rooted and nurtured. You are unique and so are our sessions. My goal is to foster a collaborative relationship to help you heal your emotional wounds, develop skills for personal growth, and guide you in your journey. I utilize an integrative/holistic approach and often incorporate CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness-based practices tailored to meet each client’s unique needs.
Taking the step to schedule your first therapy session can feel scary and takes a lot of courage. I aim to meet you where you are, move at your desired pace, and provide a space for you can feel heard, validated, and empowered to achieve your goals and live a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I look forward to working with you!
Catherine Cavinder, Psy.D.
