Catherine Lesinski, LCSW

Hi, I’m Cat, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who supports children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, ADHD, and stress related to school, work, and life transitions. With a background in day-treatment and school settings, I have a special passion for working with educators, students, and families—and I understand firsthand the unique pressures they face. I also support teachers and professionals who feel overwhelmed or burned out, offering a space to process and recharge. I bring an eclectic approach to therapy that meets each client where they are at and blends a diverse repertoire of interventions and theories based on what is best for each individual. I have a background in CBT and strengths-based interventions, but enjoy implementing play and art therapy with most clients. I also offer parent coaching using TBRI. I believe every person deserves the chance to heal and grow in a space where they feel safe, understood, and valued. If you’re looking for a therapist who brings both heart and a diverse clinical background to the work, I’d love to connect and see how I can support you or your family.

I specialize in working with individuals navigating trauma, behavioral challenges, and OCD. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices that support emotional regulation, reduce compulsive patterns, and help clients build a sense of safety and control. Whether it's healing from past experiences, managing disruptive behaviors, or breaking free from obsessive loops, I work collaboratively to create practical, personalized paths toward healing and growth.
