Catherine Denham , LCSW

Catherine Denham is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction. She practices in Florida and offers a direct, approachable style that puts people at ease. Many who come to her are navigating relationship strain, parenting concerns, or life changes and want practical ways to cope.

Her sessions are attentive and invitational. She listens first, then helps clients name what matters most to them. Catherine emphasizes simple, usable strategies that people can try between sessions. She aims to help clients build stronger emotional awareness and self-care habits.

Catherine draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Mindfulness and elements of dialectical behavior therapy are woven in to help with emotion regulation and staying present during hard moments.

Her background includes work across outpatient, inpatient and school settings, in-home services, and telehealth. That variety informs a flexible approach to short-term problems and longer standing struggles alike. She pays attention to the real-life details that affect progress, such as parenting demands and work stress.

People who connect best with Catherine tend to want collaborative, practical help rather than long academic talk. She supports individuals dealing with issues related to LGBT identity, ADHD, attachment concerns, codependency, body image, and blended family stress. Sessions focus on clear goals and steady steps toward them.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current relationships and emotion patterns. Online sessions can use this approach to identify repeated interaction styles and to practice new ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. It is practical and often includes exercises to try between meetings.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. Sessions begin with listening and goal-setting, then adjust as progress becomes clear so the approach fits the individual's needs.

Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone calls can fit a break during the day or require less bandwidth, live chat is suited to shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options allow people to choose what works best for their schedule and energy levels.
