Catherine Williams

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate (LMFT-A)

I’m Catherine Williams, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Associate (LMFT-A) supervised by Candace Runaas, LMFT-S, LPC. I provide virtual therapy to individuals, couples, and families across Texas through secure telehealth sessions, with a heart for helping people heal from trauma, navigate relationship stress, and find clarity during life’s toughest moments.

With a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelor’s in Psychology, my work is deeply rooted in both clinical insight and real-world experience. I’ve supported survivors of domestic violence, responded to crisis calls alongside the Houston Police Department, and worked closely with nonprofit organizations and high-stress professions. These experiences have shaped my commitment to creating a space where clients feel seen, supported, and equipped to make meaningful change.


My Approach to Therapy

I specialize in working with:

  • Individuals processing trauma or navigating crisis

  • Families facing conflict, communication breakdowns, or life transitions

  • Couples seeking greater emotional connection and healing

  • First responders and caregivers managing chronic stress and burnout

I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Family Systems Theory, blending structure with empathy to help you build practical tools while honoring your lived experience. Whether we’re working through a difficult past or addressing current challenges, therapy with me is collaborative, intentional, and centered on your values and goals.


What You Can Expect

My goal is to help you feel empowered, not just to cope, but to grow. I meet you with cultural humility, trauma-informed care, and if meaningful to you, the option to explore your faith as part of your healing process. You don’t have to figure it all out alone.


A Bit About Me

Outside of session, I recharge by spending time with loved ones, enjoying creative projects, and staying grounded through reflection and community. I believe deeply in the power of connection and that includes the therapeutic relationship. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin, I’m here to walk with you.
