Meet the Team
Kristen Cauley, LCSW-S, CSAT, CMAT Owner/Founder/Therapist
My name is Kristen, I'm a Licensed Certified Social Worker Supervisor (LCSW-S), Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), and Certified Multiple Addictions Therapist (CMAT). I specialize in helping individuals and families heal from sex addiction, pornography and compulsive sexual behavior, gaming and technology addiction in adolescents, substance use, betrayal trauma, disordered eating, psychosis, and other co-occurring mental health symptoms. Clients often describe me as energetic, "easy to talk to", calm when needed, compassionate and straightforward. I’ll tell you the truth kindly, help you face what’s really going on, and stand with you as you do the hard work of healing. My goal is that you feel genuinely seen, never shamed, and always supported. Whatever you’re facing, we’ll work together to find healing and hope toward a life with more integrity, connection, and peace.
Emilly Carter, LMSW - Therapist
Hi, I’m Emilly Carter. I’m a therapist who works with adults, children, and couples navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in the understanding that our experiences shape how we think, feel, & respond to the world. My style is relaxed, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. I’m not here to “fix” you, I’m here to walk alongside you, help you better understand yourself, and build practical tools that fit your everyday life. I am passionate about supporting movement toward a life that feels more balanced, grounded, and aligned with who you are.

I strive to create a safe and sensitive space where you can show up as you are. My approach is rooted in trauma-informed care, cultural humility, and a person-centered perspective. I’m here to support and empower you as you navigate life’s challenges, build on your strengths, and move toward growth at your own pace.
Services Offered
Individual Therapy
Private, one-on-one therapy for adults and teens dealing with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, or major life changes. We’ll work together to understand what’s driving your struggles and build tools to manage cravings, emotions, and relationships more effectively.
Family Therapy
Addiction and mental health issues don’t just affect one person—they affect the whole family. We provide support for partners, spouses, and parents who are dealing with betrayal, fear, anger, or confusion. You’ll gain education, boundaries, and a safe place to process what you’ve been through.
Marriage/Couples Therapy
Healing & Hope Therapy offers marriage and couples therapy designed to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and restore emotional connection. I work with couples navigating conflict, infidelity, life transitions, and patterns that feel stuck or painful. Therapy is grounded in evidence-based, trauma-informed care and tailored to help partners move forward with clarity, accountability, and hope.
Mental Health Care should be as accessible and transparent as possible. Before you begin, I’ll help you understand your benefits and what therapy is likely to cost per session.
