Catriona Waters (pronounced Catreena--it's Scottish) grew up in London and attended college in Sheffield, earning a bachelor's degree in Business Studies and French. From there, she enjoyed many years as a successful marketing and public relations executive working with major brands. 

After moving to California 20 years ago with her family, she started her second career as a therapist. She earned her Master's in marriage and family therapy from Pacific Oaks College and trained at the Family Services Agency of Burbank. She has been practicing as a therapist for over eight years. Catriona specializes in treating anxiety, panic, depression, and trauma.

In this episode, Nada sits down with Catriona to discuss the impact of returning to school and starting a new career in midlife. Catriona gives us a glimpse of her therapy practice and what led her to focus on patients with anxiety and depression. She also gives us some great tips for leaving work at work and using our senses to ground ourselves.
