About Catherine
Catherine Bolduc uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage stress and anxiety. She takes a direct, compassionate approach and adapts conversations and plans to fit each person's needs. Catherine is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, practicing in Connecticut with five years of experience.
She helps people who are dealing with addictions find motivation and healthier patterns. She also works with low self-esteem and confidence issues, and supports those coping with depression.
How Catherine works
Catherine pays attention to how life changes and relationship pressures affect day-to-day functioning. Her approach centers on respectful, sensitive care. Sessions focus on straightforward skills and steps people can try between meetings.
Catherine listens first, then shapes a plan that responds to what the person says is most important. She also addresses concerns tied to control issues, forgiveness, isolation and loneliness, and women’s health topics like pregnancy and childbirth. Self-love and building healthier self-talk are common themes in her work.
Catherine aims to make therapy a practical part of everyday life. People can expect a calm, nonjudgmental tone and clear goals for progress. She encourages small, achievable changes and checks in on how those changes feel.
Taking the first step is often hard, and Catherine acknowledges that courage while helping people move forward.

Online support options
Practical approaches for online support
Two commonly used evidence-based techniques Catherine draws on are skills-focused behavioral work and motivational guidance. Skills-focused behavioral work teaches simple, repeatable strategies for handling anxiety and mood shifts so people have tools to use between sessions. Motivational guidance helps clarify goals, boost commitment, and find small steps to reduce addictive patterns and increase healthy habits.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Catherine works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit each person's goals and preferences. She listens to concerns, suggests options, and adjusts the plan over time so the approach matches changing needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good choice when lower bandwidth or being off-camera is preferable. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, brief updates, or when someone wants ongoing written support between sessions. These options let people fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy days and make consistent care more practical.
