Catherine Ogletree, LPC - Therapist in Virginia

About Catherine

Catherine Ogletree is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on family and parenting concerns along with stress, anxiety, and relationship problems. She speaks plainly and aims to make sessions feel practical. Catherine emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in her work.

She centers conversations on the immediate issues a person brings. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and goals. Catherine helps clients outline clear steps they can try between meetings.

Background and approach

She uses approaches that emphasize skills and solutions. That means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing new behaviors, and trying brief strategies that can relieve pressure quickly. She also works on improving communication patterns within families and between partners.

Catherine brings seven years of clinical experience as an LPC in Virginia. She draws on that experience to help people facing major life shifts, workplace stress, and parenting challenges. Her background includes assisting with divorce and separation, midlife questions, and women's issues.

Clients who struggle with self-esteem, trauma and abuse, or social anxiety can expect direct, practical steps alongside supportive listening. The work may include short-term goal setting, problem-solving, and learning ways to cope with strong emotions. Catherine aims to empower people to manage hard moments and build more stable routines.

Online approaches for family and parenting support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking, try different behaviors, and reduce anxiety or low mood through small, practical changes. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on what is already working and builds simple, achievable steps toward desired changes, which can be useful for parenting challenges and relationship conflicts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. She collaborates with clients to adjust techniques over time so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families and people with tight schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions offer a simple alternative, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or ongoing feedback. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
