Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Therapy that works
I saw Dr. Catella for brief EMDR for childhood trauma. I’m so glad I did that. It has greatly changed my life. I no longer have triggers regularly and I don’t buy the old stories that originated in my trauma, as she would put it. I cannot recommend her enough.

It is clear that she has a calling for the work and her skills and talents are extensions of her passion. I cannot recommend her highly enough for anyone and any reason. She exemplifies what excellence in the therapy profession embodies.

Talented, Compassionate and Grounded Therapist
Telehealth
I've worked with Steph twice in the past decade. I've worked with Steph twice in the past decade. I've found her to be an extremely talented, compassionate and grounded therapist and coach. In working with her I was able to address persistent challenges in relationships and productivity connected to ADHD, OCD and Anxiety. I'm an executive in the start up world and I found her insights and guidance to be very relevant to working through situations and uncertainty and high stress. I 100% trust her and I would highly recommend working with her.

Experienced, Skillful, and Kind
Dr. Catella is an exceptional, knowledgeable, experienced therapist. I worked with her for over a year to design my exit from my management career to my new chapter as an artist. We covered many aspects of my expectations, my intentions, my hopes and fears. Her listening, support and suggestions were on point and well worth my time and money. I had an excellent experience. At one point my husband and my daughter joined us. It was very helpful. What I learned with her continues to improve my life. Thanks Stephanie!My family returned to work Dr Catella for family therapy when one of us developed a significant, long-term illness. So glad we did! We have seen her both in-person and through telehealth. Flexibility is helpful

I have nothing but good things to say about my therapy with Dr. Catella. Her exceptional background in evidence-based therapy, her patience, strong focus on accountability, her thoughtful compassion: all contributed to making steady progress in long-term treatment of depression and anxiety. I left as a patient only after moving; my time with Dr. Catella gave me lasting positive improvement in my quality of life, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

Values Based Therapy
My work with Dr. Catella truly changed my life for the better and even after our time together I am constantly reminded of and actively using the tools I learned to navigate my personal and professional life. When I came to her, I had a catatonic outlook on life. However, through compassion, understanding, and accountability, she was able to help me see that I could transcend my previous personal narratives and live a life in accordance to my personal values. Thank you Dr. Catella! I cannot recommend her enough!

Collaborative, effective, science-based therapy
Life happens fast. I was dealing with lingering effects of trauma, working to build the life that I wanted, and navigating the unavoidable challenges that one faces as an adult. I could not have asked for a more professional, compassionate, thoughtful partner than Dr. Catella to help set me on a path of emotional growth. Using a science-based approach, she helped me to build a suite self-awareness and self-care practices. This has allowed me to show up fully in each area of my life, making all of the difference during a truly painful time, and now serving as the emotional foundation that helps me thrive each day. Steph is a great resource. I'm so grateful for her care, and you shouldn't hesitate to reach out if you need some support and guidance.
