Caitlin Arthur, LCPC

I work with adolescents and young adults facing challenges related to life transitions, grief/loss, anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, and self-esteem. I integrate Cognitive-Behavioral interventions to assess thoughts that contribute to emotional distress and Psychodynamic interventions to investigate origins of clients' maladaptive beliefs. Intertwined throughout my clinical skills is a collaborative, strengths-based approach to navigating challenges and reaching client goals.

I am committed to meeting my clients where they're at, moving at a comfortable pace, and fostering an overall sense of safety throughout the therapeutic process. I support clients in identifying strengths and areas for growth while validating the unique experiences of each individual. Together, we can construct individualized, realistic goals for therapy that empower clients through self-awareness and the development of life skills.
