Cat Toledo, she/her, MS, LPCC, NCC

My name is Catherine Toledo and I am an independent psychotherapist in Lexington, Kentucky offering psychotherapy to adult women and women identifying persons. I earned my bachelor of science in Psychology from Western Carolina University in 2012 and later returned to Western Carolina's Asheville campus to complete my master of science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I specialize in anxiety, perinatal mental health, trauma, depression, grief and relationship issues and offer both in person and virtual services. I also have a therapy dog, Maple, who is certified through Alliance of Therapy Dogs and joins me in office a few days a week.

​

Working with me might be different than your experience with most therapists, as I encourage positive change and self-empowerment through skill use with techniques such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and other mindfulness-based cognitive therapies. This means that in addition to spending time processing past experiences, I will assist you in taking action in your life so you can finally make the changes you've been waiting to see.
 

My goal is to provide a safe and empowering space for each client to explore and process emotions in order to encourage hope and healing. I have an honest, yet warm and compassionate approach to counseling and I strive to provide a judgment free atmosphere that promotes positive change and growth. New Moon Counseling and Wellness promotes body positivity, supports Black Lives Matter and the LGBTQIA+ community.
