She is passionate about creating a warm, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic environment where clients feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful and lasting change. Catriana has experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, emotional regulation difficulties, attention related challenges, family conflict, self esteem concerns, and major life transitions.

Catriana’s clinical approach is trauma informed, strengths based, and client centered. She believes therapy should provide a respectful and nonjudgmental space where clients can safely explore their experiences, develop practical coping strategies, strengthen resilience, and build insight into themselves and their relationships. She integrates evidence based therapeutic modalities while tailoring treatment to each individual’s unique needs, goals, and personal background.

Her educational background includes earning a Master of Science in Clinical Counseling from Chestnut Hill College and a Master of Arts in Psychology from New York University, where she completed and published thesis research. She also earned a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences from Drexel University. Her training and clinical experience have prepared her to support clients across a variety of developmental stages and emotional concerns while honoring each person’s unique story and cultural experiences.

Catriana is committed to helping clients feel supported throughout the therapeutic process while fostering growth, self understanding, emotional regulation, and confidence. Whether working with a child struggling with emotional or behavioral concerns, a teen feeling overwhelmed by school or social pressures, a family navigating conflict, or an adult seeking support through life’s challenges, Catriana strives to create a compassionate and collaborative space where healing and personal growth can occur.
