Meet Kelly Catania, LAMFT at Joyful Attachment in Boise, ID area in The Village at Meridian.

Welcome to Joyful Attachment!

MEET KELLY CATANIA, LAMFT

I believe meaningful and lasting change happens when we feel safe enough to be vulnerable, understood enough to be honest, and supported enough to risk trying something new. My work with individuals and couples is grounded in attachment theory and informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method.

My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I want to understand your inner world and the experiences and values that have shaped you. I’ll meet you where you are, and together, we’ll decide where to go from there.

We’ll work to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, make sense of where those patterns came from, and develop healthier ways of coping, communicating, and connecting. My goal is to help you feel more secure, more understood, and more free to create the relationships and life you want. Most importantly, I want to empower you with the understanding and tools to navigate challenges long after our work in therapy ends.

    Individual Therapy

    Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT)

    Sometimes the patterns that leave us feeling stuck are rooted in experiences from long ago. Together, we’ll gently explore where those patterns began and how they continue to shape your life today. We’ll draw on your strengths and resources as we make sense of painful attachment wounds with care and support. Over time, you can begin to understand and integrate what you’ve been through, creating space to move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and peace.
