Catherine Powell, LCSW, is a licensed clinician based in Virginia with six years of practice supporting people through complex emotional and life challenges. She works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses chronic pain, illness, disability, dissociation, and mood or panic-related concerns.
Her work includes focused support for post-traumatic stress, panic disorder, life transitions such as divorce and separation, and the emotional effects of chronic health issues. She centers therapeutic work on helping clients explore their experiences, develop coping strategies, and rediscover a sense of purpose during difficult periods.
Catherine draws from evidence-based practices and has extensive training in trauma-informed care. She approaches each therapeutic relationship with respect and curiosity, offering tailored, empathic support that honors the strengths and healing potential of the individual.
Catherine integrates trauma-informed care with evidence-based practices to guide remote sessions. Trauma-informed care emphasizes safety, trust, and an understanding of how past experiences shape present patterns. Evidence-based practices refer to interventions supported by research, adapted to each person's concerns around stress, anxiety, panic, grief, mood fluctuations, and the challenges of chronic illness.
She frames work collaboratively, partnering with clients to identify priorities, build coping skills, and clarify values or life purpose. That collaborative process is meant to help clients articulate goals and try strategies that fit their daily lives, with the clinician adjusting approaches as needed.
Online appointments are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those options are offered so clients can choose the communication method that best fits their needs and routines.
