02 · In Catovia's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
As a licensed therapist, I bring two decades of compassionate, culturally responsive counseling experience. My practice centers on supporting individuals through life's complex challenges, with a deep commitment to holistic healing and personal growth.
I specialize in addressing stress, anxiety, grief, career transitions, and multicultural concerns, offering a warm and affirming therapeutic space.
My approach honors each client's unique journey, focusing on areas like self-love, communication, social connections, life purpose, and personal empowerment.
I understand the intricate ways personal experiences intersect with broader social dynamics, particularly for individuals navigating identity, workplace, and systemic challenges.
Drawing from extensive clinical expertise, I provide supportive guidance for diverse concerns including relationship dynamics, workplace stress, midlife transitions, family systems, and individual emotional wellness.
My goal is to create a collaborative, respectful environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal transformation.
I look forward to working together in helping you become a better you each day.

03 · What happens next
Catovia practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Catovia's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Catovia at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Catovia is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Catovia.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Catovia actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Catovia's - Catovia has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
