About Catherine
Catherine Vincent is a PACFA counsellor with 12 years of clinical experience. She starts by listening and helping people tell their story in their own words. Catherine treats each person as the expert in their life and offers steady support while they make changes.
Her work often addresses stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also pays attention to attachment concerns and issues that can follow adoption and foster care experiences. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings as well as what comes up in the room.
Catherine draws on a mix of approaches to match real needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clarify values and take small committed actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used for direct work on thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. Attachment-Based and Client-Centred ideas guide how she builds a supportive connection in sessions.
Her style is collaborative and straightforward. People can expect gentle challenge alongside emotional support, and tools they can apply to day-to-day life. Catherine aims to create clear goals and step-by-step plans that suit each person’s pace.
She practises in Australia and works in English. To begin, people are asked to complete a short questionnaire and then schedule a first appointment according to availability.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that match those values. It is useful for anxiety, depression and patterns that feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, mood and stress-related problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Catherine will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the issue and the person's comfort level.
The exact online session options are not specified here, so please confirm available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, sessions can be joined without travel, or scheduled around work and caregiving. Some approaches lend themselves to short skill-focused check-ins while others benefit from longer conversations; the therapist will help select the best format and pacing for each person's needs.
