Catherine believed in many of the principles of the Enlightenment. But, after the French Revolution showed the bloodshed and lack of monarchy those principles could lead to, she stopped supporting them. She died during the Revolution, so there is no way to know what other reactions she would have had.

Catherine was ignored by her husband and often sent away to learn. Many of the books she ended up reading were written by Voltaire and similar people
