Thanks for reaching out to Bloom Psychotherapy Center, LLC! My name is Catina Williams and I am psychotherapist and owner of Bloom Psychotherapy Center, LLC. I know finding a therapist can sometimes be a bit much and just looking at our pictures and letters behind our name may not be enough to give you a feel of who we are. So, I want to share some non-therapist things about me. I enjoy swimming and dancing. My friends think I am a much better swimmer than dancer….I dance anyways (smile). I proudly wear vibrant jewel tones and locked hair! I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister and aunt.
So now that you know a little about me, allow me to share why I do the work I do and how I can help you. After many years of providing therapy, support and advocacy for women and their families, I noticed there were gaps. There weren’t many women, notably black women that had safe spaces to share their stories about infertility, postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth trauma, miscarriage and child loss. When I began my own journey towards motherhood, I was able to feel the complex emotions that accompany the journey but most of all the loneliness of it all! That loneliness, that pain was what led me to opening Bloom Psychotherapy Center.
I’ve spent the last few years obtaining specialized training in Perinatal Mental Health, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Trauma and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help women address grief, anxiety, depression and trauma related to their journey’s. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Trauma Specialist (CTS) and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional (PMH-C).
At Bloom, you will learn how to mindfully cope with difficult emotions, how to love yourself better than anyone else, and how to Bloom into the best version of yourself! I look forward to hearing from you!
Much Love & Light!
Catina Williams, LCSW, CTS, PMH-C
