About Cathy
Cathy Christensen-Curry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Montana with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, addiction, grief, and related struggles.
Cathy focuses on improving relationships with self and others. She believes relationship changes are central to healing. In session she listens, reflects, and helps people name what is hard so they can take small practical steps forward.
Her work covers many common life challenges. That includes problems with sleep and eating, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, and coping with big life changes. She also addresses attachment concerns, adoption and foster care issues, blended family dynamics, and aging or geriatric matters.
Cathy uses approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotion-focused methods, and mindfulness practices. These tools are used to help people notice patterns, try different responses, and practice new ways of relating.
Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. Cathy supports parents dealing with parenting strain, people managing compassion fatigue, and those handling intimacy or commitment concerns. She also works with people facing body image and eating-related issues, codependency, and family-of-origin wounds.
Her style tends toward listening carefully and responding to what each person brings. People can expect conversations that focus on concrete changes, clearer thinking about choices, and steps to rebuild confidence and daily coping.
BHow sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy helps people look at patterns that developed in early relationships and how those patterns show up now. Online sessions using attachment work can help with intimacy issues, attachment concerns, and family-of-origin problems by naming interaction cycles and practicing new responses.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors. In remote sessions this approach is used to teach practical skills for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating concerns, and managing anger.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss goals, daily demands, and what feels most useful. They will try methods and adjust plans based on what helps most for symptoms and life context.
Confirm the session formats before booking since options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also make it simpler to schedule around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities. Talk with the therapist about practical preferences so sessions can be arranged to suit your routine.
