Joseph Cathey, LPC, LAC

I believe everyone deserves to live a fulfilling life, and as a professional counselor with seven years of experience, I'm committed to helping you achieve just that. My passion lies in guiding individuals through complex challenges, with a specialized focus on creating supportive environments for those in alternatives to monogamy, the LGBTQ+ community, and individuals navigating addiction and acute mental health struggles. Together, we'll work to build on your strengths and develop the tools you need to live authentically and joyfully.
