About Catherine
Catherine Surovy is a licensed professional counselor with 13 years of experience. She draws on several evidence-based approaches to help people manage strong emotions and find clearer ways of coping. She focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, and grief.
She also addresses substance concerns, parenting strain, relationship difficulties, and life changes. Her work includes support for attention challenges such as ADHD and for people dealing with past trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
Catherine favors practical, relationship-focused work. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward it. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that feed anxiety or anger.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used to teach emotional regulation and better coping strategies. In sessions she aims to build safety and clear communication. She often brings caregivers into planning when that helps a client reach goals.
The approach is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Catherine holds LPC and LCPC credentials in counseling and practices from Montana. Sessions are offered through multiple online formats to fit different schedules and needs.
She helps people break down problems into manageable steps and build more useful habits.

Approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters and take small, committed steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help when anxiety, anger, or low motivation get in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing different responses to change outcomes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and anger patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication to reduce reactivity and improve relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Catherine works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s goals, preferences, and situation. She will review options together and adjust the plan as progress is made so treatment stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice, while phone calls use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter, focused check-ins. These formats make it easier to get regular support and maintain momentum between appointments.
