About
Caitlyn Pabon, MS, LCMHC
If you’ve tried traditional talk therapy and felt like something was missing, you’re not alone. Healing isn’t just about talking—it’s about experiencing change on a deeper level. You’re here because you’re ready to do the work, and I’m here to help guide you through it.
I take a different approach to therapy—one that goes beyond just processing thoughts and feelings. My work is rooted in attachment-based, trauma-informed, and somatic practices, focusing on the mind-body connection and how past experiences shape the present. Healing can happen in many ways, and together, we’ll find what works best for you.
In addition to therapy, I offer comprehensive Adult ADHD and Autism Assessments to help bring clarity, self-understanding, and access to needed supports. For those navigating trauma, I provide PTSD Intensives—focused, short-term sessions designed to create deeper healing in less time.
Whether it’s through EMDR to reprocess trauma, Animal-Assisted Therapy to connect with healing in a unique way, Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy (Natural Lifemanship) to build trust and regulation, Nature-Based Therapy to ground yourself in the outdoors, or Expressive Arts to explore emotions through creativity, I offer experiential approaches that engage you beyond just talking.
I specialize in working with people who are ready to face their past, gain clarity about themselves, break old patterns, and build a life that feels more aligned and authentic. If you’re looking for therapy that challenges, supports, and truly helps you heal, let’s begin this journey together.
