About Cathrine

Cathrine Troy is an NM LPCC with 35 years of counseling experience who brings life experience, intuition, and creativity to sessions. She is an adoptive mother of three adult children and combines practical tools with a compassionate presence to help people facing hard transitions.

She uses a variety of approaches grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a coaching mindset to address addictions, anxiety, depression, grief, and stress. She also focuses on parenting challenges, adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and intimacy-related struggles. Clients can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation and practical steps to try between meetings.

Cathrine often helps people who are dealing with life changes, career questions, or ongoing relational strain. She works with concerns such as self-esteem, trauma and abuse, eating issues, ADHD, and compulsive behaviors related to drugs or alcohol. She also brings attention to multicultural stress, immigration-related worries, and prejudice or discrimination when those topics arise.

Her background includes work as an adoption professional and experience with fertility and attachment issues. She frames clients as the experts in their own lives and focuses on building strengths and small, achievable changes. The goal is steady progress, not quick fixes.

People who choose to work with her should expect collaborative sessions that explore goals, practical strategies, and personal values. To begin, readers are invited to consider whether they want support for parenting, relationships, or personal recovery and then proceed to a short matching process to arrange a first meeting.

How her approaches guide online care

Cathrine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside coaching approaches to help people make practical change. One common approach focuses on skill-building for stress, anxiety, and depression, teaching tools for coping, emotional regulation, and breaking unhelpful patterns. Another draws on attachment-informed work to address parenting, adoption-related concerns, and relational difficulties by examining patterns and trying new ways of relating.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to identify goals, review what has or hasn’t helped before, and agree on methods that fit the client’s needs and preferences. That means plans can shift as progress is made and new challenges appear.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow steady continuity of care when schedules change. It also allows brief check-ins or fuller sessions depending on what the client needs, helping therapy stay practical and connected to everyday life.
