Hi, my name is Catherine Igo, but everyone calls me Cate. (Pronouns - She/Her). I have had the pleasure of working as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in a variety of settings for over 25 years. I specialize in short-term Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, designed to help individuals and families efficiently resolve psychosocial challenges. I have extensive experience helping those with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and stress-related issues. My work settings have included private practice, outpatient mental health clinics, college campuses, hospitals, and employee assistance programs for diverse employers like Walt Disney World. I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Social Work at Florida State University.
If you’re struggling with an emotional, social, occupational, or family-related matter, please contact me. I look forward to working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
