About

Catherine is a Licensed Professional Counselor with the Texas State Board. She holds a Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of St. Thomas and a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Prairie View A&M University. 

 

Catherine views every client experience as an opportunity for learning that continually develops throughout a lifespan. Her focus is on the development of coping strategies to target problem solving and changing unhelpful patterns in cognition (thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation. She integrates personal growth and self-compassion techniques, while considering cultural context and addresses concerns of multidimensional factors that impact development.

​

As your therapist, she can support development of tools you need to heal, create meaningful connections with others, and live your life to its fullest potential. Therapy will help develop self-awareness, authenticity, responsibility, and the understanding of interpersonal relationships.

Catherine Trinh, MS, LPC's Expert Contributions
  • Should I take medications for anxiety?

    Consult with a therapist first if you want a holistic route for intervention. Your therapist should be able to gauge if you need medication along with therapy or not. Then they will refer you to a psychiatrist for that if necessary. READ MORE

  • How long do anxiety attacks last?

    Everyone experiences them differently. I could not put a set quantitative value on it as a universal time for everyone that experiences them. READ MORE

  • What medications work for anxiety?

    Consult with a psychiatrist for medication treatment. Everyone responds differently to different kinds. READ MORE

  • What treatment is the quickest for anxiety?

    That depends on the patient and the patient intervention utilized. Is there therapy only? Is there medication management only? Is the patient using both medication and therapy? Does the patient need medication or can it be managed in therapy alone? READ MORE

  • How long is the treatment for depression?

    It depends on the patient and what interventions are utilized. I cannot put a universal quantitative value on it as people respond differently with different interventions. READ MORE

    Absolutely, there are behavioral skills that help to offset symptoms of ADHD and make life a little bit more manageable or easier for them. Medication is only one part, there's also habit forming and executive functioning skills that help through adulthood. READ MORE

  • Should my child attend our divorce counseling sessions?

    In amicable divorce, it is often a great idea to attend co-parenting counseling together to establish clear boundaries and expectations.

  • Should I go to my school's counseling center?

    Those campus resources are typically free or very affordable. I highly recommend so that you have a space to help organize your thoughts, develop a structure/routine, or unload your experience. What's the worse that could happen? You find out that you don't like it? I see you trying as you taking action rather than doing nothing to offset that stress. READ MORE

  • Do you have to be married for couples therapy?

    You don't have to be married to go to couple's therapy. In fact, I highly recommend pre-marital counseling because it helps to alleviate future stressors, establish clear expectations for the relationship, and discuss intimate topics that people don't speak about until something happens. Prevention is key to alleviate crisis. READ MORE

  • Do couples who undergo behavior therapy stay together?

    There is no guarantee that therapy can help a couple stay together or disband. What can come from therapy are better tools to make change, handle situations, improve communication, and offer clarity to make the best informed decision for your relationship. READ MORE
