About Caitlin

Caitlin Riggins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma, and self-esteem struggles. She draws on practical therapy methods to help clients set goals and make changes that matter in daily life. Caitlin works from a collaborative stance and treats people as the experts on their own lives.

With six years of clinical experience, she focuses on clear, step-by-step work. Sessions explore current problems, identify patterns that get in the way, and build small skills to try between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to notice unhelpful thoughts and shift behaviors, while Solution-Focused techniques help people find and use their strengths.

Caitlin also incorporates trauma-focused strategies when past experiences are part of the problem. She aims to support people through processing difficult memories at a pace they can tolerate. The approach balances symptom relief with longer term coping skills.

Her style is straightforward and compassionate. She asks questions, offers feedback, and partners with clients to set realistic steps toward their goals. Caitlin emphasizes self-compassion and practical tools rather than lengthy theory.

People who come for help with parenting, addictions, grief, or life transitions will find attention to both feelings and behavior. She also addresses attachment, codependency, control issues, and self-love in sessions. The work is tailored to each person’s needs and priorities.

Approaches That Guide Online Work

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT often focuses on practical exercises you can use between sessions to reduce anxiety or lift mood.

She also applies Solution-Focused Therapy to identify strengths and build on what is already working. This approach centers on small, concrete steps toward a client’s goals rather than long discussions about the past.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your concerns, discuss options, and recommend a way forward based on your needs and preferences. Clients and therapist decide collaboratively which methods to try and when to adjust the plan.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about what works for your routine and goals so sessions can be arranged to fit into everyday life.
