Catherine Duthie, LCPC

Catherine Duthie is a Maine LCPC - a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with 18 years of experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addiction-related behaviors and anger, among other concerns. Catherine draws on her background in counseling psychology to help clients who want change in how they cope and behave.

She earned a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Substance Abuse/Addictions from Antioch University in Keene, New Hampshire, and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Southern Maine. Her career includes work in community mental health, a medical center, and a hospital setting. Catherine has also held membership in the American Counseling Association.

Catherine’s clinical focus includes co-occurring disorders, integrative care for mental health and substance use, relapse prevention, depression, anxiety, and anger management. She uses practical methods that encourage motivation and small, steady changes in behavior. Sessions tend to involve clear goal-setting and skills practice rather than vague theory.

Her common approaches include Motivational Interviewing to increase readiness for change, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the client’s perspective, and trauma-sensitive strategies when trauma is relevant. Catherine also includes psychoeducation to help people understand patterns and options.

Outside of work she spends time running, kayaking, swimming, reading, and with her daughter. She invites people to describe where they are and where they want to go, then to work together on practical steps toward those goals.
