About Catherine
Catherine Denham is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience. She practices in Florida and offers services for a wide range of life challenges. Catherine focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and parenting concerns.
Her style is warm and attentive. Sessions aim to be respectful and straightforward. She works to help people find their own voice and steady ways to cope with hard moments.
Background and approach
She draws on approaches that include attachment-based work, client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, and mindfulness. Those methods are used in ways that match each person's needs rather than following one fixed plan. Catherine has experience across outpatient, inpatient and residential settings, schools, in-home work, and telehealth.
That background informs a flexible approach to practical problems like relationship strain, grief, anger, and coping with life changes. Parents who are feeling overwhelmed or stuck will find a focus on real-life solutions. Catherine helps with parenting challenges, blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and attachment worries.
She also supports people dealing with ADHD, body image, codependency, and feelings of emptiness. Sessions are offered in English and use a mix of phone, video, chat, and text-based messaging. The first step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy button.

How her approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how early bonds affect current reactions. This approach can be useful for people dealing with parenting stress, adoption and foster care questions, and attachment concerns.Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience and goals, offering empathetic listening and reflection. It helps people regain confidence, clarify values, and make changes at their own pace.
Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. It can be especially helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process may change as progress is made or new issues come up.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be easier when a lower bandwidth option is needed or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging make it simple to check in between longer sessions or fit brief work around a busy schedule.
