About Catherine

Catherine Moore is a licensed professional clinical counselor practicing in Ohio with 25 years of experience. She focuses on family matters, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and anger. Catherine approaches each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on.

She offers steady support for people who want change and is present to help them take the first steps. Over a long career Catherine has guided people through family conflict and difficult parenting moments.

Background and approach

She also has experience helping those who have faced traumatic events and who want to reduce anger that gets in the way of everyday life. Sessions emphasize practical steps you can try between meetings. Conversations are direct but respectful, aimed at small shifts that add up.

Her style is collaborative. Catherine listens first, then works with clients to identify goals and a clear plan. She checks in about what is working and adjusts the plan as needed.

The approach is steady and outcome-minded without being harsh. People often come with a single urgent problem and leave having tools for ongoing challenges. Catherine helps sort immediate tensions and build routines that support healthier family interactions.

For parents she focuses on manageable changes that fit busy schedules. Her work is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and years of practice. Catherine supports each person in finding a path forward that feels doable.

She aims to empower clients so they can handle future challenges with greater confidence.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online family and parenting work

Two evidence-based techniques Catherine uses are trauma-informed strategies and skills-based behavior work. Trauma-informed strategies focus on recognizing how past harm affects current reactions and on building safety and pacing so people can process hard memories without becoming overwhelmed. Skills-based behavior work teaches concrete actions and communication habits that reduce conflict and improve parenting routines.

She also draws on anger management techniques that break the cycle of escalation. These techniques help identify triggers, introduce brief calming strategies, and practice alternative responses so moments of anger create fewer lasting problems. Each approach emphasizes real skills to try between sessions rather than only talking about problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and then suggest methods to try. Clients and the therapist make decisions together and adjust the plan as progress is seen or needs change.

Online therapy provides flexibility for busy families. Catherine offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can pick what fits their schedule and comfort level. This variety makes it easier to keep momentum, practice new skills in real life, and stay connected when in-person visits are hard to arrange.
