About Catalina
Catalina views emotional challenges as opportunities for growth and greater self-understanding. She emphasizes a nonjudgmental, supportive stance that centers the client as the expert in their own life while offering practical tools and strategies that can be applied immediately. Therapy with her is tailored to each person's history and goals rather than relying on one-size-fits-all solutions.
Her practice addresses relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, coping with life changes, stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and LGBT-related issues. Additional focus areas include blended family dynamics, body image, caregiver stress, and communication problems. Catalina integrates evidence-informed approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques to help clients set realistic goals, shift unhelpful patterns, and navigate transitions. She provides services in both English and Spanish and supports clients seeking a collaborative, skills-based approach to emotional well-being.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Catalina Ortiz draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; CBT is practical and often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to cultivate present-moment awareness and coping skills that support emotional regulation and reduce reactivity in everyday life. Narrative Therapy is another approach she employs to help clients explore the stories they tell about themselves, rewrite limiting narratives, and strengthen a sense of agency during life transitions or identity work.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Catalina works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Clients are invited to share what feels most helpful so that sessions can be adapted over time to maximize relevance and progress.
Online therapy with Catalina is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and different communication styles. These options make it easier for people to access licensed professionals and therapists from varied locations and to continue care through life changes, while maintaining consistent contact and momentum in therapy.
