About Catherine

Catherine Chapman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Oklahoma with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, parenting strain, and other life changes. Her practice also addresses caregiver stress, divorce and separation, first responder and veteran issues, and post-traumatic stress.

She uses practical methods in sessions, including cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness exercises. EMDR is part of her approach for trauma-related work. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused methods to help clients set goals and make changes.

In session she listens and helps people identify strengths they already have. Conversations focus on concrete strategies people can try between meetings. Sessions can include skill practice, short homework tasks, and step-by-step plans to manage symptoms and daily stressors.

Her background includes work in hospital and medical settings, supporting patients and families through difficult health-related transitions. That work informs how she addresses grief, chronic stress, and the practical side of coping with illness or caregiving responsibilities.

People who want to start are guided through a simple matching and scheduling process. Catherine prefers a collaborative style that checks in regularly about what is working and what to change. She aims to help clients find manageable tools for the problems they bring to sessions.

How sessions work

How her approaches are used in online sessions

EMDR is a trauma-focused method that uses structured processing to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and the reactions they trigger. In practice this looks like guided processing across several sessions and can help with post-traumatic stress and trauma-related symptoms.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Sessions use practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build new coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Mindfulness therapy teaches brief attention exercises to reduce rumination and improve moment-to-moment awareness. These practices are often paired with other strategies to manage emotional reactivity and support regular self-checks.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review your goals and preferences and suggest one or a mix of methods. You and the therapist decide together what to try and adjust the plan as you go.

Confirm which online session formats are currently offered before booking, since specific formats were not listed in the profile. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. The focus in online meetings stays on practical skills, problem solving, and pacing the work to what you can manage between sessions.
