About Catherine

Rev. Catherine Bogue is a Missouri licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 47 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, parenting concerns, family issues, intimacy-related problems, anger, and coping with life changes.

Catherine offers direct, practical work aimed at helping an adult manage day-to-day pressures at home. She talks through coping strategies, supports people processing loss or trauma, and addresses patterns that make relationships harder. Sessions use plain language and concrete steps rather than jargon.

Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and tolerate difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Client-Centered ways of working keep the focus on each person's priorities.

Over the decades she has worked with veterans, older adults, and people in midlife transitions. That experience informs work with grief, post-traumatic stress, and the stresses that come with caregiving or end-of-life concerns. She also has experience supporting people affected by addiction and domestic violence.

Catherine aims to help people build practical skills for managing emotions and relationships. She listens for what is getting in the way of daily functioning and offers tools to shift those patterns. For adults seeking help with family and parenting pressures, she provides straightforward guidance and steady clinical experience.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions toward those values, even when feelings are painful. It can be useful for anxiety, grief, and life changes where direction and meaning feel unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and patterns and practicing different behaviors that reduce symptoms. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to what the individual wants to work on, keeping the conversation on the client's priorities.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work together. The therapist will review your situation, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try. That plan can change as sessions progress, with the client and therapist checking in about what is helpful.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are scheduled and delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time that would otherwise interrupt routines. If you prefer a certain way of meeting, mention that on the questionnaire so scheduling reflects your needs.
