About Caitlin

Caitlin Riggins is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW, CSW) practicing in Florida who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, addiction, and issues related to self-esteem and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

She also focuses on attachment struggles, codependency, control issues, postpartum depression, personality concerns, and recovery-related topics such as drug and alcohol addiction and relapse prevention. With six years of clinical experience, Caitlin draws on a range of strategies to address both acute crises and longer-term patterns that interfere with well-being.

Her style blends collaborative listening with practical, skills-based work. Caitlin often uses cognitive behavioral techniques alongside a solution-focused outlook, and she brings trauma-focused methods when processing past wounds and painful events.

She centers clients as experts on their own lives while offering structured tools to shift thoughts, behaviors, and relational patterns. Those who choose to work with her can expect an engaged partner who helps translate goals into concrete steps and supports progress at a pace that fits each individual's needs.

Structured approaches for online healing and growth

Many clients benefit from the clear, skills-oriented work of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to improve daily functioning. Solution-Focused Therapy complements this by concentrating on present strengths and practical steps, helping clients set achievable goals and notice progress in a short-term, action-oriented way.

The therapist approaches treatment collaboratively, and finding the right method is part of the therapeutic process. She will work with each person to select approaches that match their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting techniques over time if something is not the best fit. This collaborative stance helps ensure the work stays relevant and meaningful for the client.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or to continue care when in-person options are limited. These formats support ongoing access to licensed professionals and allow the same practical strategies, symptom management techniques, and trauma-informed work to be delivered in ways that suit different lifestyles and comfort levels.
