As a clinician with 22 years of experience in the mental health field, I understand the unique issues of clients with different personal, ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds.
Catherine Roberts is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 22 years of experience in the mental health field. She understands the unique issues of clients with different personal, ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds.
Catherine enjoys working with clients who are experiencing self-identity, interpersonal relational issues that affect their job and family dynamics. This is her ideal type of client to work with because there is a lot of self-exploration the client will need to work on first. Some of the issues that will come up are self-loathing, lack of esteem, shame, and poor self-image. As a clinician, Catherine provides them support and total acceptance. When the client can begin to embrace and accept who they are without judgment, they can begin to work on how they relate to other people in all areas of their life. This can be done slowly and one step at a time. The pace is usually set by the client and how they progress along in treatment as they embrace each stage of their new self.
Catherine began her career in the mental health field as a therapist in an inpatient facility, responsible for the patient's ongoing clinical progress while at the hospital. Her patients varied in ages from 10 to 12-year-old children, to 13 to 17-year-old adolescents, to 18 to 55-year-old adults, and seniors who were in crisis. She worked with patients who were diagnosed with Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, Anxiety, Major Depression, Obsessive Impulsive Disorder, ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, Mood Disorder, Alcohol/Drug Dependency, Conduct Disorder, and Sleep disorder, just to name a few.
Catherine really enjoys getting to know people while working with them on their unique concerns. She offers a very supportive and client-centered environment to therapy, and she loves helping clients move toward their goals by being a partner in their journey towards a renewed self and clinically appropriate treatment. She enjoys working with clients and assigning them research-based homework activities to help them work independently on areas of concerns outside of the sessions. Her areas of specialty include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, interpersonal therapy, and other researched based therapeutic approaches that are appropriate to treatment.

Bipolar disorder therapy from our providers at Thriveworks in Marietta, GA is an effective form of mental health treatment for those with bipolar disorder. It helps one to better navigate their unique experience, which might come with hypomanic, manic, or depressive episodes.
Bipolar disorder therapy works to help you manage your specific symptoms as well as improve your relationships. It can also help you cope with stress, a major contributor to the disorder.

The length of bipolar disorder therapy sessions will vary from one person to the next, dependent on their specific needs. However, short-term, problem-focused therapy for bipolar disorder typically lasts for 12-16 weeks. Therapy may last longer for those who have more severe or persistent symptoms.
Almost six million people in the United States have been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, and while those words feel scary to hear, there are effective treatments for this severe mental illness. Many people are working closely with a therapist to find a diagnosis that explains their behavior and a treatment that allows them to manage their symptoms.
The therapists on staff at Thriveworks Marietta understand the particular difficulties a Bipolar diagnosis can bring into an individual’s life. We also understand that those difficulties can be overcome. Our mental health professionals have worked with many clients to find the right diagnosis and the right treatment plan that allows them to live their life on their terms—not Bipolar’s.

Bipolar Disorder is a mental illness wherein people cycle between two extreme moods—mania and depression. These cycles often feel confusing and erratic, and people who suffer with it deserve the utmost patience, empathy, and care. Understanding how the illness works is often an important part of healing for both the individual who is diagnosed and their loved ones. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) outlines how both the mania and the depression of Bipolar Disorder can look within an individual’s life. It details the criteria for both mania and depression. People who have Bipolar Disorder will experience both.
The depression phase of Bipolar is characterized by empty, weepy, and sad feelings that result in a generally depressed mood and disinterest in everyday life. This mood should last for the majority of the day and for a continuous two weeks. Individuals will also experience at least three of the following:
The other phase is mania. At times, mania can be stereotyped as a frenzied glee—all happy, all the time. While some may experience mania as such, it can be frenetic euphoria or irritability. The DSM-5 explains the criteria:
Within Bipolar Disorder, there are many subcategories for diagnosis. Working closely with a therapist is usually an important part of finding the correct diagnosis and treatment.
If you are ready to work closely with a mental health professional to figure out what may be happening to you, the therapists at Thriveworks Marietta are ready to work for you. If you have already been diagnosed with Bipolar Depression and want a skilled, caring mental health professional on your team, the therapists at Thriveworks Marietta are ready to work for you.
