About Catherine
Catherine Ogletree is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia with seven years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, and career or workplace issues. She also addresses trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and life transitions including divorce and midlife changes.
Catherine uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in sessions. She focuses on practical strategies that clients can try between meetings. Conversations are used to set goals, test small changes, and track what improves over time.
Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. Sessions typically look at current problems, identify unhelpful thoughts or behaviors, and try specific techniques to shift them. She also helps people clarify short-term goals and steps they can take right away.
Catherine has worked with concerns such as self-harm thoughts, social anxiety and phobia, self-love, and women’s issues. She brings experience working with clients facing divorce or separation and people coping with major life changes. She aims to help people build skills to handle symptoms and everyday stressors.
Clients are invited to discuss what they want to accomplish in the first meetings. The therapist adjusts the focus based on individual goals and progress. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s matching and scheduling steps to set a first session.

Approach and practical online sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It involves identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Solution-Focused Therapy centers on goals and small, achievable steps. Sessions concentrate on what is changing, what works, and how to build on strengths to reach short-term objectives.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose which methods to use based on goals, preferences, and what helps in early sessions. Plans are adjusted as progress is tracked.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and lets people use video or audio options depending on comfort and bandwidth. Licensed professionals use the same therapeutic methods online as in person, focusing on practical skills and goal tracking rather than different techniques.
