Speak Easy Therapy with Catesby Buteau & Associates is focussed on: individuals, including youth and adults; adult partnerships, including non-conforming/poly partnerships; sex and gender issues; and healing from trauma. I specialize in stress-related disorders, relationship issues, behavioral problems and systemic dysfunctions in adults, children and families.
I identify as a relational therapist, versed in Trauma-Informed Cognitive-Behavioral (TI-CBT), Dialectical-Behavioral (DBT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques - among others - for the treatment of anxiety, depression, behavioral disorders and relationship issues. These are especially relevant to those with sexual difficulties stemming from trauma, abuse and other sources of psychic, emotional, spiritual and physical pain.
Change can be uncomfortable, but the result is relief, as well as a happier and more sustainable life. Clients leave with their own, personal toolbox, with which they can build a life they truly enjoy long-term. Throughout the therapeutic process clients learn to identify their patterns; evaluate the ways in which those patterns help and hinder goals; address how they interact with the other individuals; and practice the pursuit of meaning, integrity and joy.
I hold a BFA in Theater from NYU, an MSW from YU specializing in LGBTQA+, Military, children/youth/families, and Substance Use Disorders, and have engaged in large-scale research with the SAMHSA and the CUNY system.
