About Catherine

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Montana with 15 years of experience, Catherine Goss helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, trauma, depression, parenting challenges, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related concerns. She uses a person-centered approach and draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques where helpful. Sessions emphasize listening, validation, and practical skills to support day-to-day functioning.

Catherine keeps things direct and conversational. She listens first, then helps people identify small, workable steps they can try between sessions. That might mean practicing grounding or emotion regulation skills from DBT, or using motivational interviewing to reduce substance use. She focuses on what a person can do now to feel less overwhelmed.

Her work includes support for trauma and abuse, panic and social anxiety, mood and personality concerns, and the strains that come with life transitions. She also helps with specific issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, and parenting stress. Catherine notes experience treating drug and alcohol addiction and co-occurring conditions.

Sessions are practical and goal-oriented while staying rooted in the person-centered frame of active listening and acceptance. She helps people recognize patterns and practice different responses to stress and relationship triggers. The aim is to increase day-to-day coping and reduce immediate distress.

How her approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and acceptance. The therapist offers nonjudgmental attention and uses that stance to help people name their concerns and priorities. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard and to clarify what matters to them.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. These skills are useful for managing intense emotions, impulsivity, panic, and relationship stress.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. Catherine will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on how well they fit the person's needs and preferences. The first sessions often focus on identifying immediate concerns and picking a few skills to practice.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the available session types before booking. Many people find that remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists can teach DBT skills and coach through exercises during sessions, while person-centered work supports talking through difficult topics and setting practical next steps.
