About Catherine
Catherine Duthie is an ME Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 18 years of counseling experience. She focuses on addictions, anxiety, depression, trauma and related concerns along with issues such as parenting stress, grief, eating concerns, and workplace strain. Catherine also works with people facing prejudice and multicultural challenges. She practices in Maine and provides services in English.
She trained in counseling psychology with a concentration in substance abuse and addictions and has worked in community mental health, medical center, and hospital settings. That background informs a practical approach to co-occurring disorders and relapse prevention. Catherine emphasizes change when people feel motivated and ready to act on goals they set.
Her sessions use straightforward conversations that explore behavior patterns and what motivates change. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and reflect, and on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with concrete skills. Motivational interviewing is used when people feel unsure about changing a habit.
For people impacted by trauma, she applies trauma-focused ideas alongside education about symptoms and coping strategies. She also addresses burnout and compassion fatigue for professionals and caregivers. Catherine mixes skill-building with discussion about values and next steps.
Outside work she enjoys running, kayaking, swimming, and reading, and spends time with her daughter. People who want clear feedback, practical strategies, and a focus on actionable change will find her style direct and task-oriented.

How her approaches fit remote work
Client-Centered Therapy here means the therapist listens closely and reflects what matters to the client. This approach helps people clarify goals and priorities while feeling understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing new skills. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, relapse prevention, and managing day-to-day stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they decide whether to emphasize listening and exploration, behavioral skill work, or motivational techniques to support change.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Some people prefer sessions that focus on skill practice and homework; others use sessions to process difficult experiences and plan next steps. The therapist will adapt methods to fit each person's needs and daily life.
