About Catherine

Catherine Denham is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience delivering mental health care across outpatient, inpatient/residential, school-based, in-home, and telehealth settings.

Background and approach

She has supported people managing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, ADHD, grief, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, and struggles with self-esteem and coping with life changes. Her background also includes work with issues such as attachment, adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, and a range of personality and mood-related difficulties.

Her approach combines evidence-informed methods with a warm, attentive manner. Catherine centers respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions and aims to help clients connect with their inner voice and build practical skills.

She draws from attachment-based perspectives, client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior skills, and mindfulness practices to tailor care to each person’s needs. Catherine practices in Florida and provides services in English.

Clients can expect collaborative, strengths-focused work that emphasizes empowerment and gradual change. She offers a calm, encouraging presence to support people taking steps toward improved wellbeing and healthier relationships.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online care

Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes understanding patterns formed in early relationships and how those patterns affect current connections; it can be useful for people dealing with relationship difficulties, attachment concerns, and family dynamics. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching concrete strategies to change them, which is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and self-compassion skills that support emotional regulation and reduce reactivity in the face of stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Catherine treats this as a collaborative exploration. She will work with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and then adapt methods from attachment-based, CBT, or mindfulness-informed practices so that the plan fits the person rather than the person fitting a single technique.

Online therapy with Catherine is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across busy lives and can support consistent practice of skills between sessions. Licensed professionals can use these formats to guide skill building, process experiences, and track progress in practical, accessible ways.
