About Celestee

Celestee Cathey, MSW, LCSW- I have 20 years of experience in the mental health field and achieved my Master’s of Social Work from the University of Houston in 2009. My treatment approach is holistic, trauma-informed, and based on self-determination with the goal of empowerment and an ability to view any situation with a positive mindset. I dedicated over 10 years of my career to the correctional system where I completed risk assessments, responded to crisis situations with the goal of de-escalation, and made necessary but difficult decisions to keep individuals safe from delirium, psychosis, and suicidality. This added to my experience and impacted my view on addressing barriers to ultimate self-fulfillment, including trauma, substance use disorders, co-occurring disorders, and serious mental illness such as depression. Trainings include: EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Nutritional and Integrative Medicine for Mental Health Professionals, and Advanced Infant Mental Health.
