    About Catherine

    Catherine Duthie is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who brings 18 years of clinical experience to her counseling work. She focuses on helping people who are ready to change problematic behaviors and address emotional struggles. Her approach starts with listening to a person's story and building a plan that fits their goals and readiness for change.

    She earned a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Substance Abuse/Addictions from Antioch University in Keene, New Hampshire, and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Southern Maine. Catherine has worked in community mental health, medical center, and hospital settings. That range of settings informs how she helps with practical problems and coordination of care.

    Catherine often uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, collaborative relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

    She works with a broad set of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and parenting stress. She also supports people facing multicultural issues and experiences of prejudice and discrimination.

    In sessions she offers straightforward guidance, relapse prevention work when needed, and skills practice. Outside of work she enjoys running, kayaking, swimming, reading, and spending time with her daughter.

  2. How these approaches can shape online therapy

    Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and follows the person's lead. It helps when someone needs a calm space to talk through feelings and decide next steps. Motivational Interviewing is a conversational style that helps people explore their readiness to change and strengthen their own reasons for making changes; it is often used for addictive behaviors and habits.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide whether motivational techniques, client-centered support, or cognitive-behavioral tools fit best for their goals. That plan can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.

    Confirm which online session formats Catherine currently offers before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use tools like worksheets or behavioral experiments between meetings, so work continues outside of sessions.
