Catherine Filary, MI LMSW 6801092172

I am licensed in Michigan with 16 years of professional therapy experience, I use a trauma informed approach when helping clients with stress and anxiety, addictions, depression, and PTSD symptoms. I tailor each client's treatment individually according to needs and desires. I believe in treating each person compassionately, respectfully, and without stigmitizing labels. My treatment is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy based, with Mindfulness and nervous system reset exercises at hand. I have experience both in mental health and the addictions. I have worked with clients taking Suboxone treatment while facing an opioid addiction. I have shared therapy time with clients who have very limited resources while dealing with mental health disorders. I've treated military veterans with many dealing with combat stress. I embrace LGBT+ and older adults. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I encourage my clients to challenge themselves in becoming better versions of themselves and grow into self fulfilled individuals. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
