Therapy for Women Who Are Done with the Pain and Ready for Joy, Peace, and a Life That Feels Authentically Theirs
You’ve done everything you can to move forward, but something still feels off. Maybe you grew up in a home where love came with conditions, emotions weren’t safe, or you had to shrink yourself to keep the peace. And now? You catch yourself repeating patterns you swore you’d break—whether it’s doubting your worth, struggling with anxiety, or finding yourself in relationships that feel way too familiar in all the wrong ways.
I see you. You’re not just trying to survive—you’re trying to break cycles, not just for future generations, but for yourself. You want more confidence, more connection, more inner peace. But no matter how much you try, the past still pulls at you. Here’s the thing—you don’t have to figure this out alone.
I help women untangle the past so they can build a future that actually feels good. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and mindfulness, we’ll break down what’s keeping you stuck and help you step into a life that feels fully your own. Because you are wired for connection and joy—we just need to clear what’s been getting in the way.
Together we can work through….
Childhood Trauma & Emotional Neglect – Heal old wounds and finally feel whole.
Narcissistic Abuse Recovery – Break free from toxic relationships and reclaim your voice.
Breaking Generational Cycles – Create a future that looks nothing like your past.
Anxiety & Overwhelm – Feel grounded, calm, and in control of your life.
Finding Yourself Again – Whether you’re before marriage, after marriage, or somewhere in between, let’s reconnect you with your true self.
Hey, I’m Cate,
I’m a trauma therapist, a mom of two, and someone who knows firsthand how life’s challenges—especially relationships and family patterns—can resurface old wounds. My own journey through healing and motherhood taught me that breaking free from the past isn’t just about willpower—it’s about understanding how your brain and nervous system are wired and creating new, healthier patterns.
My approach blends Neuroscience, Attachment, & Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you heal from the inside out. Therapy with me isn’t just about talking; it’s about rewiring your brain and nervous system to create real, lasting change.
You are wired for connection and joy—it’s time to reclaim it.
Therapy Can Help You Heal.

Frequently asked questions
-
In therapy, we create a safe, supportive space to explore what’s been challenging for you. Each session is tailored to your needs, whether that’s addressing stress, parenting struggles, or relationship dynamics. We’ll often dive into how your past influences your present while also building practical tools to help you navigate daily life with more calm and intention.
-
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or stuck in patterns you can’t seem to change, therapy can help. It’s a space to explore what’s weighing you down, learn new tools to navigate challenges, and create more balance and connection in your life. You don’t have to figure it all out on your own.
-
While therapy can feel like a safe space to share what’s on your mind, it goes deeper than venting. We’ll not only talk about what’s bothering you but also explore why it’s happening and work on strategies to create real, lasting change. Therapy helps you gain insight and build the skills to navigate life with more ease.
-
Yes, parenting can put a lot of strain on relationships, and I often help moms navigate these challenges. Whether it’s disagreements about parenting styles, feeling unsupported, or carrying the mental load, therapy can help you communicate more effectively, set boundaries, and work toward a more connected partnership.
-
Mom guilt is something many of my clients struggle with. In therapy, we’ll explore where those feelings come from, challenge unrealistic expectations, and help you develop self-compassion. You’ll learn how to give yourself the same grace and understanding you give your kids.
-
Our practice is self-pay and we can provide a superbill. It is the client’s responsibility to verify if their insurance company will reimburse for our therapy sessions.

-
Taking radical responsibility means recognizing the dynamics in your relationship and understanding what you can and cannot control. If your partner isn’t offering the support you need, therapy can help you develop the self-awareness, communication skills, and confidence to advocate for yourself. Together, we’ll work on transforming those dynamics and creating a more supportive partnership—or finding new ways to meet your needs.
