About Cait
Cait Farrell is a Maine-based clinician who helps people facing stress, anxiety, and relationship strain. She listens for what matters most and supports clients who want clearer direction, more confidence, or relief from persistent worry. Cait holds an ME LCPC and brings 18 years of experience to each conversation.
She sees anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, and challenges with sleep or eating. Cait also works with people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
She supports clients wrestling with life changes, career decisions, or questions about intimacy and sexual identity. Cait favors straightforward, collaborative work in sessions. She treats the person as the expert on their life and helps uncover strengths that make change possible.
Practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy are blended with mindfulness and narrative techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns. Sessions often focus on clear goals and step-by-step plans. Solution-focused strategies help break problems into manageable parts and produce small wins.
Cait also attends to family of origin issues, blended family stress, communication problems, and the fallout of separation or infidelity. Parents and caregivers can find support for burnout, role strain, and caregiver stress. She addresses issues like abandonment, guilt and shame, jealousy, and isolation in ways that connect daily habits to bigger life goals.
Cait aims to help people build coping skills they can use beyond therapy.
Approaches that guide online work and practical support
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the client’s lead, helping clarify values and personal strengths so people can decide what change looks like for them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches small, practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build better habits for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Cait will work with each client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies together, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed so work in sessions fits real life.
Online formats offer flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, between-session coaching, or times when typing is preferable. These options make it simpler to keep momentum and use therapy tools between appointments.
