Catherine Schully, LPC

Catherine Schully is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, motivation challenges, depression, and LGBTQ+ related issues. She practices with a structured, goal-oriented framework that often includes practical exercises or homework to reinforce skills discussed during sessions. Her work emphasizes learning to live with difficult thoughts and emotions rather than continually fighting them, helping clients build the capacity to make space for those experiences while still pursuing a meaningful life.

Clients work with Catherine to set clear goals and practice skills between meetings, so change is anchored in everyday life rather than confined to the therapy hour. She values collaboration and a pragmatic approach, tailoring strategies to each person’s circumstances and pace. LPC denotes Licensed Professional Counselor, a credential that reflects specialized training and supervised clinical experience in counseling.

Throughout her practice, Catherine focuses on fostering resilience, enhancing self-compassion, and supporting identity-related concerns. She guides clients through transitions and relationship patterns with attention to practical tools and long-term growth, and she provides steady, goal-focused support as people move toward more fulfilling, values-aligned lives.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Practical Tools

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate actions - the focus is on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward a meaningful life. This approach is often helpful for stress, anxiety, and patterns that block forward movement.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on a respectful, empathetic relationship in which the therapist listens deeply and reflects each person’s experience. It supports self-exploration, self-acceptance, and personal growth, and can be especially useful for identity concerns, self-esteem, and relationship issues.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Catherine works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they experiment with techniques and adjust the plan as progress and challenges arise.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, or other commitments and allow consistent access to licensed professionals and therapists from different locations, helping maintain momentum even when life is busy.
