About Catherine

Catherine Schully is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with eight years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQ concerns. She supports people who struggle with self-esteem, motivation, and life changes, and she works with a range of related issues like attachment, codependency, and isolation.

Her style is practical and goal-oriented. Sessions often include exercises or short homework to practice new skills between meetings. She encourages learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them all the time. That approach helps people move toward goals even when hard emotions are present.

Catherine uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy principles alongside a client-centered stance. That means she helps people notice what matters to them, take steps toward those values, and keeps the conversation grounded in the client's experience. The client-centered side keeps the work focused on each person’s goals and pace.

She also supports people dealing with family of origin issues, gender dysphoria, sexuality, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, trichotillomania, and coping after natural or human-caused disasters. Sessions aim to build practical tools for everyday life and clearer next steps.

Based in Arizona, she frames therapy as collaborative work. She helps people set clear targets, practices skills in and between sessions, and adjusts the plan as needed to match real life.

This summary is based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp.

How ACT and client-centered work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It emphasizes identifying personal values and taking small steps toward those values, which can help with depression, anxiety, and motivation problems.

Client-centered therapy centers the conversation on the person's own experience. The therapist listens, reflects, and follows the client's pace so that goals emerge from what matters most to the client rather than from a preset plan.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Catherine collaborates with each person to find what fits their needs and goals. She will help set clear, manageable steps and adjust methods based on what helps in day-to-day life.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills between sessions in the settings where they live and work, which can make new behaviors more relevant and useful.
