Treatment Options
Individual
Couples
Individual therapy is a process through which clients work one-on-one with the counselor. This is done in a safe, caring, and confidential environment to explore your feelings, beliefs, and behaviors. In these 45 to 60 minute sessions (depending upon insurance coverage) clients will work through challenging of influential memories, identify aspects of life that they would like to change, set personal goals, and work toward desired change. Caitlin approaches therapy using TF-CBT, Narrative Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy approaches.
Couples counseling is a process through which a couple works with the counselor to identify specific areas of conflict and/or aspects of their relationship they would like to change. This is done through the Gottman Method. Couples counseling will not be done if intimate partner abuse and/or violence is occurring. Caitlin has completed Gottman level two and can now assist couples with trauma and affairs. In these sessions couples will address any immediate and pressing problems, develop strategies for protecting and enhancing the long-term health and happiness of the relationship, and set goals for the relationship. Please be aware that many insurance policies do not cover couples counseling.
Personal Philosophy
Caitlin's personal philosophy is to counsel individuals from a person centered approach. This is an emphasis on the individual to become their most authentic self; focusing on their concerns and goals. From here there will be implementation of cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focused therapy to help work through conflicts and achieve collaborative goals.
