Hi there! I’m Becca, and I’d be honored to explore the human wilderness with you!

I support those seeking to reclaim their sense of aliveness and agency, whether that means navigating stress, burnout, grief, major life transitions, or a general feeling of disconnection.

As a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner as well as a Death Doula and Therapeutic Healthcare Clown, I offer a playful, compassionate space where movement, wonder, and imagination can gently guide the body back toward regulation and presence. Trauma work doesn’t always have to be serious; in fact, the willingness to not take ourselves too seriously often allows some of the most complex survival responses to finally complete themselves. Where is curiosity, trauma can not take hold (Peter Levine). Through gentle nervous system guidance, I help clients release pent-up survival energy and restore their natural capacity to self-regulate.

People working with Dr. Cat can expect:

• Becoming aware of bodily sensations related to trauma

• Allowing those sensations to move through the body within your tolerance level

• Supporting the completion and integration of trapped energy or survival responses
