About Catherine
Catherine Towne-Coleman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arkansas with 41 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, money problems, career questions, and young adult issues. Catherine describes herself as direct and practical in sessions and focuses on helping people move past roadblocks toward clearer goals.
She uses a person-centered stance alongside solution-focused ideas to shape conversations. That means sessions start with the client's priorities and then focus on small, practical steps that can change daily life. Catherine also draws on techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when they fit a person’s needs.
In sessions she talks through current problems, helps set achievable goals, and practices coping skills. She works with financial stress, workplace conflicts, relationship strains, and the transitions common in early adulthood - like finishing school, starting a career, and handling money pressures. Conversations include skill practice and planning, not just talk about feelings.
Catherine asks a few questions at the first meeting to set clear, short-term goals. From there she and the client track progress and adjust the plan as needed. Her approach is straightforward and focused on concrete steps that help people regain control over daily challenges.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time, and fees vary with location.
How Catherine’s approaches translate to online work
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ideas in everyday situations. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic attacks, and workplace stress by breaking problems into manageable steps.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and priorities. The therapist listens, reflects, and supports clients as they choose what to work on next. This approach is useful when someone needs to clarify values, life purpose, or decisions about relationships and career.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Catherine will talk with the client about their goals, try different techniques, and adjust what they do together based on what helps most. The plan can change as progress is made.
