Thanks for visiting my page to learn more about me! I take finding the right therapeutic fit very seriously. I am guided by curiosity and empathy. I have a relational approach to therapy.

I am skilled at helping to treat PTSD, Anxiety Disorders, Mood Disorders, and other mental health needs. I am comfortable discussing and treating suicidal ideation. I hope to speak with you soon and learn about what you’re looking for in a therapist!

Catherine Washington

Catherine Washington

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


My name is Nicole Washington, and while my full name is Catherine Nicole Washington, I’ve always gone by my middle name. (A fun fact: I didn’t even realize Catherine was my first name until kindergarten—I thought my mom was Catherine and my name was “Cole” because that’s what everyone called me!)

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling from Capella University, driven by a lifelong desire to help others—one that was deeply shaped by my own personal journey with mental health challenges. I believe healing is possible, not just because I’ve studied it, but because I’ve lived it.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including partial hospitalization programs, and I have experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults. My background also includes work with domestic violence survivors, DCFS-involved families, group therapy, and individuals navigating complex life transitions. Oh and I’m also a the spouse of a Veteran. Which gives me a unique perspective of the challenges that military family’s may encounter. These diverse experiences allow me to meet clients where they are—with compassion, understanding, and respect.

What would your life become if you truly met yourself? This is what I help my clients experience. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership—one where your voice holds equal weight and healing unfolds in a space that feels safe, open, and free of judgment.

If anxiety, perfectionism, or self-doubt have been weighing on you— or you’re longing for a space where your faith and values are truly welcomed—you’ve come to the right place.
