“I have been navigating a long and difficult family law process, and just when I began to feel like no one truly cared, I was referred to Caitlin Burgess. She has been an absolute pleasure to work with. Caitlin is not only kind, compassionate, and professional, but she also takes the time to listen and fully understand the complexities of my situation to provide the best possible guidance. Her dual licensure in both California and Washington have been invaluable in my case.”

“Caitlin Burgess offers the highest quality of care for clients seeking therapy and forensic services. She brings a depth of compassion that is grounded in professionalism.

As a clinician myself, I regularly refer clients to Caitlin because I trust they will be in good, caring and competent hands. Clients that I refer to Caitlin report tremendous gratitude that they have finally found such a warm, supportive, and kind therapist who truly seeks the best for all parties involved. I can’t recommend her work highly enough!”
– Jaclyn Long, LMFT, Founder and Director of Mindful Child and Family Therapy
“I highly endorse this attorney. Caitlin is an intelligent advocate who combines both street smarts as well as book smarts with respect to family disputes. She has a comprehensive understanding of family dynamics for child custody issues and because of her expertise in this area has accurately predicted outcomes that have saved her clients unnecessary legal fees, time and heartache. With Caitlin you get both integrity and honesty. You get the correct legal advice. She puts her clients’ (including the children of her clients) best interests and pocket book above her own).”
– Mylene Ansari, Family Law Attorney
“Caitlin Burgess is highly competent and professional, with abundant experience not only as a licensed marriage and family therapist, but as a practicing family law attorney as well. Her integrity is unmatched in both fields, and Caitlin is licensed to practice as a therapist in five separate states (California, Colorado, Washington, Texas, and Florida)! Many clients and attorneys have sought out her consultation and expertise, especially in matters involving complicated child custody disputes and cases centered around children, given her unique niche and skill set. As a licensed marriage and family therapist myself, I have benefited greatly from her consultation and legal and ethical advice on complex family therapy cases. As a trusted colleague and confidant, I would happily refer anyone (families, adult individuals, adolescents, and children) to her care.”
