About Catherine

Rev. Catherine Bogue is a licensed clinical social worker with 47 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and addiction. Her style is steady and compassionate, and she supports people working through parenting, intimacy concerns, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

She uses straightforward talk and practical tools in sessions. She draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to address painful memories and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas help people clarify values and take small steps toward them.

Catherine works with people who are coping with big life changes, complicated family issues, and health-related transitions such as hospice or aging concerns. She also offers support for grief, codependency, substance concerns, and the emotional fallout after loss or separation.

Her background spans many clinical settings across Missouri. That experience informs how she helps clients make sense of guilt, shame, dissociation, and compassion fatigue. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each person's needs.

People who meet with Catherine can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk through painful events. She focuses on practical strategies and steady support so clients can build coping skills and move toward clearer goals.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Trauma-Focused Therapy focuses on processing painful memories and reducing their hold on daily life. Online work with trauma approaches often uses gradual, paced techniques to help people feel more steady when recalling difficult events.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters and take small steps toward those values. Online ACT sessions typically combine conversation with simple exercises people can try between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and comfort. That means checking in about what helps and adjusting the plan over time.

The therapist's biography does not specify which online session formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. These practical benefits can help people maintain steady progress while juggling everyday demands.

These summaries are based on the profile information listed on BetterHelp. Listing trauma-focused therapy does not mean a therapist holds a specific certification such as TF-CBT, EMDR or CPT.
