About Cait

Cait Farrell is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Maine. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, relationship strain, and life transitions. Cait emphasizes practical steps and steady support so clients can feel more confident over time.

Cait sees each person as the expert on their own life. She focuses on strengths and what is already working, then builds simple, realistic plans to change what isn't. Sessions are collaborative and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on small actions that add up.

With 18 years of experience, Cait has guided people through grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also helps those facing career changes, caregiver stress, and struggles with sleep or eating. Her background includes work with mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and attention challenges like ADHD.

Cait draws from several therapeutic approaches to match what a person needs. She uses client-centered methods to follow a person's priorities, cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, and mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity. Narrative and solution-focused ideas help people reframe stories and set achievable goals.

Cait welcomes people from diverse backgrounds, including LGBT clients, and accepts international clients. She encourages anyone ready to make a change to take the first step and explore what might help.

How Cait's Approaches Fit Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more useful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, anger, depression, sleep problems, and motivation by giving clear tools to practice between sessions.

Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the person's agenda. The therapist follows the client's lead, listens deeply, and helps people clarify their own goals. This approach supports work on self-esteem, relationships, and life decisions by keeping the focus on what matters to the client.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and breathing or attention practices that reduce reactivity. It can be useful for managing stress, anger, and symptoms of trauma by creating pauses between feeling and action.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Cait will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice happens together and can change as progress unfolds.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. If you are interested, confirm which session formats Cait currently offers before booking so you know how sessions will be scheduled. Many people find the flexibility helpful for staying consistent with care.
