Catelin Vaida

Hi, I'm Catelin — therapist, human, and fellow work-in-progress. I believe therapy works best when it feels real. I show up as my full self: honest, compassionate, sometimes a little irreverent, sometimes laughing — always committed. I'm not here to pretend I've got it all figured out, but I do have the training, tools, and experience to walk with you through the messy, meaningful work of healing and growth. I work alongside teens and adults to figure out what actually works for you, not just what's "supposed" to. My approach is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care. Together, we'll get curious about the patterns that keep you stuck, the stories you're ready to rewrite, and the values that can guide you forward. Therapy with me is a space where you don't have to filter, shrink, or apologize—you can show up exactly as you are. We'll do the deep work, but we'll also make space for humor, honesty, and the small wins along the way. If that sounds like the kind of support you've been looking for, I'd be honored to connect.
