About Catherine

Catherine Denham is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 15 years of experience. She has worked across outpatient, inpatient/residential, school-based, in-home, and telehealth settings. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, ADHD, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and issues tied to family background and attachment.

Catherine uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She listens for patterns that trace back to childhood roles and expectations. Then she helps people notice how those patterns show up now. Conversations focus on practical ways to change unhelpful habits and reduce distress.

Her approach combines talk with concrete skills. She draws on attachment-based ideas to explore early relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot and shift thinking that worsens anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools help with emotional regulation and coping when feelings run high.

People who come to her often want clearer boundaries, steadier relationships, or relief from recurring family-related reactions. She also works with grief, addiction concerns, codependency, and issues tied to adoption, abandonment, or blended families. Sessions aim to clarify what matters now and to build small, workable changes.

Catherine keeps work practical and conversational. She invites clients to try strategies between sessions and to check what helps. Prospective clients are asked to confirm current session formats before booking so they know which options are available.

How Catherine’s approaches work for remote sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how those patterns affect adult interactions. In remote sessions this can mean tracking roles learned in the family and talking through how they show up now in relationships and parenting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that increase anxiety or low mood. Online work with CBT uses structured conversations, worksheets, and brief between-session practices to test new ways of thinking and acting. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will help clients compare methods and choose what fits their needs and goals. This is a collaborative process that may shift as problems change or new priorities emerge. The original biography describes telehealth experience but does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins during a workday break, and reduce travel time. Others appreciate that some sessions may focus on grounding or skills practice rather than being on camera for the whole time. Licensed professionals can adapt tools from attachment work and CBT to the online setting to keep sessions focused and practical.
