Cathy Walker, LPC, NCC

Licensed Professional Counselor

I realize that sometimes we can feel stuck and unable to find our own way out of that space. I provide a safe space to talk, to be heard, and to explore what's been going on and the possibilities to make things better.

My Approach

Therapy is collaborative. Everyone has their strengths, although, at times, it is difficult to recognize them. I use an eclectic approach based on who the client is and what they bring into the session. I draw from person-centered, Gestalt, cognitive behavioral therapy, Gottman Couples Therapy, and mindfulness approaches.

My Background

I am a licensed professional counselor and a nationally certified counselor. I started my professional life in a technical field and found myself becoming more and more interested in the people with whom I worked, and so I decided to pursue a master's degree in counseling from Portland State University. I have a background in crisis work, suicide bereavement support, and working in elementary schools in addition to my private practice.
