Hello! My name is Catherine Chapman. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Oklahoma. I earned my Masters of Social work from the University of Oklahoma in 2012. I have been a practicing social worker for 10 years and, additionally, am certified in EMDR therapy which I have been utilizing in my practice since 2021. I have experience working in the hospital and medical field to help patients and their families to find the support and resources they need to get through whatever difficult life situation they may be facing. I feel this experience has given me a deeper understanding of the challenges people may face throughout their lives and the various reactions they may have, whether it be anger, grief, depression, or something else, while processing their own health concerns or those of a loved one. I realize that everyone faces these struggles either in their own lives or through someone close to them and that they can be very difficult to comprehend and accept at times. My goal as a therapist is to help people overcome these situations by providing them a better understanding and tools to guide them through these hard times. My methods focus on using the Strength Based Perspective, Person-in-Environment Perspective, EMDR, and Solution Focused Therapy. I believe you are the expert in your own life and I hope to help you recognize the strengths in yourself while offering support and a non-judgmental sounding board. I will take our time together seriously and give you my full attention to best help you. I look forward to working with you!

My counseling style is supportive and empowering. I incorporate a variety of treatment modalities, i.e. person centered, mindfulness, & cognitive-behavioral, etc. No two client's have the same experiences, so individual treatment can look very different.

For over 30 years, I worked as a licensed (LICSW) mental health therapist, mental health manager and founder/director of a non-profit health/mental health support and advocacy organization. I’m a psychodynamically-oriented therapist, meaning I believe we exist on many different levels (physically, intellectually, emotionally, sexually, spiritually, etc.). As such, I'm interested how all those levels interact with one another and, along those lines, how we unconsciously sabotage ourselves without meaning to. Psychodynamically-oriented therapy is not appropriate for all clients, however. Specifically, it is not for clients who are struggling with intense and overwhelming emotions, self-harm and suicidal ideation, psychosis, borderline personality disorder (BPD), addiction and various other issues. Those clients need a very different approach that, optimally, may involve worksheets and tutorials designed to help them acquire the skills to regulate their emotions and achieve their stated goals in the fastest possible way. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) are two of the more popular and effective exponents of the second approach. That's not my preferred approach, however, noting that each therapist has clients they work well with and others who are simply not a good fit. In a very general sense, I’m interested in how a client might express or fail to express their intellectual/emotional integrity and authenticity; in how they can attain a greater integration and capacity for intimacy, spontaneity and creativity; in how they might attain a greater sense of wholeness; and in how the corrosive effect of their unfinished business from the past unconsciously keeps trying to find closure in the present. I'm also interested in the GLBTQ+ community and in human sexuality in general, including shame, guilt and repression. Last but not least, at the existential level, I'm interested in how we are coping with the collective crisis through which we are all presently passing, the metaphoric storm which will likely be bone-crushing in scope, the long-anticipated tsunami that seems to have finally arrived.
