Welcome-I'm really glad you're here.
My name is Catrece Hoult and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over 20 years of experience in social work, supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds through life's challenges. Spill the Beans Counseling Studio, LLC was created as a warm, compassionate space for women who are navigating depression, anxiety, grief, and loss.
My journey into clinical social work is rooted in a lifelong passion for helping others. In my early forties, I made the intentional decision to pursue my Master of Social Work through the University of Southern California's Virtual Academic Center-a step that reflected both personal growth and a deep commitment to serving others more fully. I am grateful to now be in a position to offer therapy that is thoughtful, supportive, and grounded in real-life experience.
I believe healing begins when you feel safe enough to be honest. In our work together, there is no pressure to have everything figured out or to share more than you're ready for. I meet each client where they are, honoring their pace, their story, and their strength-especially during seasons that feel heavy or overwhelming.
My approach to counseling is compassionate, respectful, and client-centered. I strive to create a calm, non-judgmental environment where you can speak freely, feel heard, and begin to process what you've been carrying-sometimes quietly-for far too long.
I am a Christian, and my faith guides me to show care, humility, and grace in my work. While counseling is not faith-based unless requested, I strive each day to be a better listener, supporter, and advocate for those I serve.
On a personal note, I am married and a parent to two children. These life experiences, along with my professional background, have shaped my understanding of resilience, compassion, and the importance of having a safe place to land.
It would be an honor to use my education, experience, and heart for helping others to provide comfort, support, and a safe space for you.
Spill the Beans Counseling Studio is a place where you don't have to be strong all the time. This is a safe place to begin.
