What if improving your relationships isn’t starting together, but starting with you? As a Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with individuals who are curious about their relationship patterns and ready to create meaningful change from the inside out. You may feel stuck in recurring dynamics, find yourself questioning how your family background shapes your relationships, or want to communicate more effectively. Together, we create a space to gain clarity, better understand what’s driving these patterns, and begin making intentional shifts toward healthier, more balanced relationships.

Hi there and welcome!

My priority is supporting clients on their journeys towards personal healing & growth.

In 2010, I received my MSW/LMSW. While doing outpatient clinical work at the NYC non-profit agency JBFCS, I became an LCSW. In 2016, I began to establish my private psychotherapy practice, focusing on young and professional adults presenting with a broad variety of life challenges.

I have over 10 years of experience working with individuals who are struggling to find their way in a complicated world. My practice offers a space for anyone who is looking for a sense of shelter and refuge where they can breathe, process their thoughts and feelings and find meaning in their life. I believe that everyone has the capacity to change and develop internal strength and resilience. It is my goal to empower those who are seeking new ways of looking at themselves and their relationships. Talk therapy has the ability to soothe our hearts and minds. More than ever, we need to find ways to reprogram our fear-driven minds.

• 24 Years in Practice
• MSW – Fordham University 1997-1999
• BS Psychology – Fordham University 1993 – 1997

I have been coaching clients in the New York area for the past 24 years as they make positive, life-altering changes via individual, and couples counseling. Through carefully guided exploration, my clients uncover behavioral patterns that keep them from the happiness they desire by learning strategies for managing stress, working through loss, creating loving, productive relationships.

I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology in 2002. Having worked in healthcare and academic settings, I appreciate being part of a treatment team and am available to coordinate care with other providers when beneficial. Rather than see 'how many problems' a person may be facing... I see 'how many ways things can get better'. I value working with folks to see their puzzle from a different angle and to use tools to clarify, change and improve the picture.

I have always been oriented towards uplifting others and creating space for others to be seen and heard. I received my MSW in 1997 and my training has centered around trauma-informed care, attachment theory, and mindfulness.

In the over 25 years that I have been a social worker, I specialized in foster care, adoption, and family systems. This has translated to a private practice that involves work with those experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, and loss.

My name is Caitlin Clouse. Licensed Clinical Social Worker is just one of the many titles I carry. First and foremost I am a mom, wife and daughter. Through my own lived experiences—including an estranged relationship with a parent during childhood, as well as experiencing secure attachment within a strong and supportive family system—I witnessed firsthand the impact that difficult and unhealthy relationships can have on an individual’s emotional regulation and overall well-being. I also experienced how supportive relationships and co-regulation within a family system can foster resilience, confidence, and motivation.

These experiences is what led to my decision to attend Adelphi's MSW program. I have always had a passion to work with adolescents to help them feel understood and validated.

I began my career providing in-home support to children and families experiencing crisis. Through this work, I developed a strong foundation in supporting individuals and families through challenging circumstances and transitions. Through my practice in building positive relationships with adolescents, I have been able to assist them in organizing their thoughts and communicating them more effectively to their family and friends. I have been able to see first hand how treating them with dignity and respect allows them to grow their perspectives and become better listeners, which enhanced the family system as whole. No matter the current dynamics of one's family, we all come from one, which is why utilizing Structural Family Therapy and ACT has been helpful in my practice with not just families but individuals as well. Whether you're a parent, daughter, son, brother or sister, I'm here to help.
