About Catherine
Catherine Chapman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Dakota and Oregon with four years of clinical experience and a practice based in Oklahoma. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, compassion fatigue, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, eating concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, career matters, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes.
Chapman uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She names patterns that get in the way and offers concrete steps to try differently. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one approach listed among her methods for noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses. She also draws on EMDR and mindfulness techniques when trauma or strong emotional memories are present.
Her background includes hospital and medical social work, helping patients and family members access resources and manage difficult health-related emotions. That experience informs how she responds to grief, end-of-life concerns, caregiver stress, and the unique pressures faced by first responders and veterans. She also lists work with divorce and separation and hospice and end-of-life counseling.
Sessions aim to clarify immediate goals and build practical skills. Chapman emphasizes identifying individual strengths and applying solution-focused steps between meetings. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused therapy appear among her methods for fostering forward movement on goals.
She asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to get started. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted at this time.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify thought patterns and test different behaviors. CBT focuses on clear steps you can try between sessions to change how you think and act, which can suit people seeking practical tools for anxiety, depression, or stress.She also works with EMDR for trauma-related memories and strong emotional reactions. EMDR involves guided procedures to process distressing memories and can be useful for post-traumatic stress and other trauma symptoms. Mindfulness therapy is used to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stressful thoughts and feelings.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend ways of working together. That decision is collaborative and can change as goals evolve.
