About Catrina
Catrina Horn is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Tennessee with more than 10 years of experience. She has worked with people dealing with addiction, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, bipolar disorder, and major life transitions. She also supports those navigating family of origin issues and related family problems.
Catrina draws on straightforward talk and practical skills in sessions. She listens to each person’s story and helps name patterns that repeat from early family life. Sessions often include building coping skills for mood swings, managing cravings, and handling intense emotions when they arise.
Her work combines several well-known approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and to try new behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for overwhelming moments. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the focus on the person’s goals and lived experience.
Mindfulness and Narrative Therapy are also part of the toolbox. Mindfulness practices help people notice thoughts and feelings without reacting immediately. Narrative work helps people reframe stories they carry from childhood and family relationships.
Catrina’s style is direct and practical. She helps people set small, measurable steps and checks progress each week. If someone is managing grief, addiction, or patterns from their family of origin, she works to make the next steps clearer and more doable.
How approaches and online sessions fit together
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experience and is about listening and reflecting back what matters most. This approach helps people clarify values and decide what change looks like for them.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches skills to change unhelpful thinking and to try different behaviors, which can help with mood problems and managing impulses.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical skills for regulating emotions and tolerating distress. It is useful when feelings feel overwhelming or when people want tools for steadying mood and behavior.
Finding the right approach is often collaborative. The therapist will talk through which methods match a person’s goals and preferences and will adjust techniques based on how the client responds. Clients and the therapist decide together on the best mix of skill-building, talk work, and practical homework.
