I come from an existentialist and internal family systems, trauma-informed philosophy, with pragmatic, evidence-based approaches rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical emotional regulation, and mindfulness.
Hello, I'm Robert Evers, MS, NCC, LAC, LCADC, CCTP-II, CATP, CMHNS. I have worked in co-occurring treatment for over a decade with individuals dealing with addiction and mental health issues. My educational background is in psychology, clinical mental health, and vocational counseling from Rutgers University.
If you are trying to peel back the layers and thin the veil that is obscuring your potential, let's talk. Addiction, while having a clear connection to mind-altering substances, has a behavioral component that, in the proper therapeutic environment, can be addressed, and true healing can occur.

Waitlist for new clients
I recently became certified in EMDR and I have completed training in Syzygy ( IFS and EMDR combined) and Imago therapy.
I enjoy working with people in a way that is both warm as well as structured, easy-going as well as goal-oriented. Like Ghandi said, "No-one ever understood a truth about themselves unless it was spoken with kindness." It can be painful facing aspects of our lives that we have previously avoided or self-medicated. However, my aim is to make therapy safe enough to face these hard truths. Although it takes a lot of courage to come to therapy and talk about underlying issues and struggles, in the long run, doing so can lead to an equivalent sense of freedom and connection.

To understand WHY we get caught in our negative patterns and to start creating new neural pathways for how to manage our nervous system, I draw from IFS, Polyvagal and Attachment theories.
My speciality is working with individuals experiencing issues with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, over-eating, grief and trauma. My approach is to first identify existing coping strategies to deal with the current stressors. Together, we sort out the underlying problems and identify and develop a tool kit with more effective coping strategies for the many challenges that the world throws at you. We examine and re-frame your emotional reactions to current and past trauma. The relationship between therapist and client is really important for change; and I do my best to provide a warm, natural, humorous and relaxed atmosphere.

If you find yourself navigating difficult life transitions (work, relationships, loss, etc.) and are seeking to feel more connected with life or to manage these stressors with greater ease and confidence, please reach out. Clients experiencing grief, or who carry heavy worries or painful recollections of the past may find solace in individual sessions where we will identify the distress and make a plan for moving forward. You don't need to have specific symptoms to "deserve" therapy; we all deserve more peace. Catherine works primarily with adults in individual/couples sessions, and has special expertise with partner violence.

You’re burnt out, and the pressure to keep it all together wears you down. Maybe you juggle family, school, or work while trying to stay composed. Inside, you feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and stressed. You might seem "put together" but quietly struggle with imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and worry. Therapy can help you quiet your inner critic, reconnect with yourself, and reduce doomscrolling. Hi, I’m Chris. I offer a collaborative space to show up as you are, explore what feels heavy, and make room for growth, healing, and even a little humor.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by trauma, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, or major life transitions? You’re not alone. Many of my clients have felt the same, often after spending so much time caring for others or pushing through life’s demands that they’ve lost touch with themselves and their own needs.
They come to therapy seeking a deeper understanding of themselves, clarity about their experiences, and meaningful, lasting change. Some are new to therapy, while others are ready to go deeper and do more focused healing work.

I am certified in Internal Family Systems ( IFS) and EMDR, both therapies that support deep healing by helping you understand and care for the many parts that make up your inner world.

My work focuses on helping people access their inner wisdom and cultivate a more compassionate relationship with themselves and others. I specialize in healing childhood trauma, working with grief and loss, aging, and major life transitions.

EMDR, somatic therapy, IFS, ACT, and nervous system regulation, matched to what's stuck in your system.
Something brought you here. Maybe it's flashbacks, nightmares, or a body that won't stop bracing. Maybe it's the relationship you keep repeating, the numbness you can't explain, or sexual wounds you've never told anyone about. Complex trauma doesn't just live in your memories; it's in your nervous system, your patterns, your body. I specialize in treating trauma at that level: the deep, stuck, somatic kind that talk therapy alone hasn't resolved. I work with a small, intentional caseload because this work requires real depth. If you need a specialist, not a generalist, you're in the right place.

I am trained in EMDR and IFS and have advanced training in trauma treatment and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP).
I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is a central part of healing. My style is warm, relational, and approachable, with extra focus on emotional safety, connection, compassion, and trust. Many of the struggles we face in our adult lives are rooted in early attachment experiences, especially when we did not feel consistently seen, cared for, protected, or understood. I work collaboratively with clients to explore how early experiences shaped core beliefs, nervous system responses, and patterns in perception, relationships, communication, and self-worth.

Is waking up in the morning so challenging that you can barely enjoy your cup of coffee? Maybe you get so bogged down by excessive worry or chronic health concerns that you just can’t sleep anymore. Perhaps you’ve had a recent loss and don’t know how to cope on a daily basis, or maybe your emotions fluctuate so much between extremes that you feel out of control. I know how coping with your day to day can be hard and it may feel like you want to curl up in a ball and escape until all your overwhelming challenges disappear.

An increasing number of my clients are familiar with or interested in IFS , a therapy model which recognizes the parts within ourselves and a healthy core Self which is a source of healing and transformation.
I have integrated my years of training and experience in mind/ body approaches into a wholistic therapy approach for healing trauma , loss, relationship struggles, life transitions and many other problems. IFS therapy is the model that underpins much of the therapy work I do. It is a non pathologizing, deeply healing, compassionate therapy.

The interventions I use draw from parts work ( IFS), Emotion-Focused Couple and Family Therapy, EMDR, Play Therapy, and CBT.
Finding a therapist can be a daunting challenge, and it's courageous to even begin the process. Many of my clients have seen one or more therapists in the past, and struggled to feel understood and get the help they actually need. If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. I am trained and practiced in addressing the root causes of suffering in individuals and relational systems, which allows me to provide the highest quality of care to children, teens, adults, couples, and families; even those who have previously struggled to find therapy helpful.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists
What is Internal Family Systems therapy?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a type of talk therapy that focuses on sub-personalities, or “families,” within a person, which may be made up of wounded parts and unpleasant emotions like anger and shame. These sub-personalities can come into conflict with each other and with an individual’s core Self, leaving the person feeling detached from positive traits such as the “8 C’s” of confidence, calmness, creativity, clarity, curiosity, courage, compassion, and connectedness. By healing a patient’s wounded parts, a therapist aims to restore balance and bring on positive change.
How does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
An IFS therapist will work with a patient to identify their particular sub-personalities, recognize the emotions powering them, and release them. By doing so, the patient should become more able to address any underlying problems their sub-personalities may have been trying to protect them from. Ultimately, a patient discovers ways to manage internal and external conflicts on their own, through techniques such as relaxation exercises, journaling, and making charts depicting the relationships between their core Self and their distinct parts.
Does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
IFS therapy has been shown to help people address conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic, fears and phobias, trauma, and substance use disorders. Some research has also found that it can help individuals deal with symptoms of physical health conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, such as pain, everyday functioning, depressive feelings, and low self-compassion. There are some conditions for which IFS treatment, specifically discussions of one’s “parts,” may be less appropriate, such as schizophrenia or other states that involve psychosis or paranoia.
How long does Internal Family Systems therapy take?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for IFS therapy. After becoming comfortable with a therapist and the core concepts of IFS, some patients quickly make progress. While experiences vary, most will find that it is a relatively longer-term therapy, involving months and sometimes years of sessions.
