Creating Space For Healing, Transformation, And Joyful Exploration
WELCOME TO THE HIDDEN THERAPIST
I’m Mary Cate, a Licensed Professional Counselor and trauma specialist, also serving as Mental Health Coach, and Wellness Educator. I take a compassionate yet direct approach to help you break through barriers and create lasting change, setting you on a path toward greater well-being, peace, and prosperity.
More than overcoming symptoms, healing is a process of harmonizing the mind and body with the soul’s unique purpose in the world. This process is unique because of how personalized it is. Together, we co-create a process that is fine-tuned to your unique situation and goals.
I specialize in working with individuals who are ready to fully invest in their personal and professional growth. Together, we’ll navigate unique challenges, cultivate resilience, and foster a deeper sense of alignment and success in all areas of life.

Hello everyone!
WE ALL FACE STORMS OF DOUBT, FEAR, WORRY, ANGER, REGRET, AND DESPAIR AT SOME POINT.
It’s easy to feel lost, overwhelmed by one challenge after another. I’ve navigated my own course through turbulent waters, gaining the insight and skills necessary to overcome these difficulties. My love of learning and desire to help others has shaped a finely tuned approach that is both authentic and highly effective.
I believe life isn’t just about weathering the storms but learning to ride the waves, experiencing them as moments of beauty and growth. The best guidance not only helps us process the past, overcome symptoms, and reach our goals, but also cultivates a lasting sense of peace, joy, freedom, and fulfillment.
At The Hidden Therapist, I blend evidence-based practices with a touch of the mystical, creating space for the people, circumstances, and opportunities needed to foster greater prosperity and freedom. Watching clients heal, evolve, and ultimately move forward without my support is bittersweet—but it is also my greatest joy.
PSYCHOTHERAPY
From within the context of professional psychotherapy: explore, heal, transform, and experience lasting peace and fulfillment. Together, we ignite the changes that will transform your inner and outer worlds so you can embody the abundance and joy that is your birthright.
PSYCHEDELIC THERAPY
Psychedelic-Assisted Psychotherapy offers a unique opportunity to explore the depths of your mind and uncover transformative insights that can lead to profound healing and growth.
MARRIAGE & FAMILY THERAPY
Focused on relationships and system dynamics, Marriage and Family Therapy helps couples and families learn how to listen, communicate, and move through conflict in a way that leads to greater understanding, acceptance, and LOVE!
Success has its Shadows
For leaders seeking more than a coach or counselor, Mary Cate offers a compassionate yet incisive approach that navigates the complexities of success. Many high-performing leaders possess the same traits—relentless drive, creativity, and a willingness to push boundaries—that contribute to their success but also leave them vulnerable to burnout, addiction, perfectionism, and other challenges
Mary Cate helps leaders:
Break Free from Limiting Patterns: Uncover and release habits that no longer serve you.
Shift Perspectives: Reframe challenges to unlock innovative solutions.
Cultivate Relational Skills: Build trust and empathy to foster authentic connections and dynamic, high-performing teams.
With a deep understanding of the intersection between mental health and leadership, Mary Cate offers strategies to align your leadership style with your values. When possible, she connects leaders, investors, and organizations for mutual growth.
Wellness Coaching for Leaders, Executives, and Entrepreneurs
Entrepreneurs and executives operate in high-stakes environments, often facing relentless pressures and challenges. These unique demands can take a toll on mental health, with research showing markedly higher rates of:
Depression: 30% (compared to 15% in the general population)
ADHD: 29% (compared to 5%)
Substance Use: 12% (compared to 4%)
Bipolar Disorder: 11% (compared to 1%)
The Hidden Therapist provides a personalized approach to support executives and entrepreneurs in navigating the complexities of leadership while safeguarding their mental health and well-being.
What’s Included:
Tailored Wellness Plans: Designed to address your unique challenges and goals, integrating proven techniques for stress reduction, focus, and resilience.
Breathwork and Somatic Practices: Practical tools to regulate the nervous system, enhance mental clarity, and sustain high performance. Live instruction and audio recordings.
Leadership and Relationship Coaching: Strengthen your ability to lead with empathy, clarity, and presence, while fostering deeper, more meaningful connections.
Confidential Support for Mental Health and Well-Being: Gain a trusted partner to help you address personal and professional struggles without judgment.
Guidance on Psychedelics: Explore the thoughtful and intentional use of psychedelics to address burnout, enhance creativity, and solve complex problems, with a focus on safety and integration.
MENTAL HEALTH CHALLENGES ARE NOT ONLY PERSONAL—THEY’RE COSTLY. DEPRESSION, ANXIETY, BURNOUT, OR CONDITIONS LIKE BIPOLAR DISORDER CAN IMPACT DECISION-MAKING, CREATIVITY, AND LEADERSHIP EFFECTIVENESS.

Trauma Specialist, Educator,
Founder
LIKE YOU, I AM A HUMAN BEING, TRAVELING LIFE'S PEAKS AND VALLEYS, LEARNING FROM ITS CHALLENGES AND SAVORING ITS JOYS.
My work is inspired by a deep understanding of the human experience—its struggles, its beauty, and its vast potential for growth. Having worked globally with individuals from diverse backgrounds and cultures, I’ve found that certain truths are universal: the innate capacity to grow, the desire to thrive, and the need for purpose and connection. Grounded in evidence-based science and the timeless wisdom of ancient traditions, I guide others toward greater purpose, prosperity, and freedom, helping them reconnect with their capacity to create a life of meaning and fulfillment.
When I’m not working, you’ll find me immersed in music, reading, or writing. I draw inspiration from nature, especially the mountains, whether I’m skiing, hiking, or simply breathing in the stillness they offer. My Entlebucher Swiss Mountain Dog, Rama, is always teaching me about being present and embracing endless enthusiasm. I’m often quietly engaged in humanitarian projects that ignite my passion for creating a better world.
