About Cathy
Cathy Christensen-Curry is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Montana. She brings 20 years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, or life changes. Cathy focuses on improving how people relate to themselves and others, and she approaches each person with warmth and respect.
Her style is caring and responsive. She listens for what matters most and helps people build practical skills they can use between sessions. That includes work on sleep and rest when disrupted by anxiety or stress, as well as support for parenting strains, addiction concerns, and grief.
Over two decades she has supported people through trauma and abuse, depression, attention challenges, and family-of-origin difficulties. Her practice blends approaches to match what a person needs in the moment, using evidence-informed methods to address thought patterns, emotions, and attachment concerns.
Cathy aims to make the therapy process feel manageable. Sessions are paced to allow small, steady gains and moments of relief. People who meet with her often work on clearer communication, setting boundaries, and rebuilding confidence after hard experiences.
She asks straightforward questions and practices active listening. The goal is to leave sessions with concrete next steps that fit daily life. To begin, people follow a simple intake to match with her and then schedule a first appointment.
How her approaches shape online work
Cathy commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her practice. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current connections, helping people change how they relate to others and themselves. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies for managing anxiety, sleep disruption, and low mood.Finding the right approach is collaborative. Cathy will work with the person to identify which methods match their goals and comfort level. Together they set priorities and try approaches that feel manageable, adjusting the plan as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the therapist's current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days and avoid travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to continue work on sleep and daily routines while balancing family or work responsibilities.
