Stepmoms on a Mission®
Are YOU a Stepmom on a Mission?
Willing to trade in your resentments for some revised beliefs and creative boundaries?
Ready for some new approaches that can eliminate conflicts with your partner and help you handle stress as a loving team?
Looking for proven, ethical ways to deal with “uncooperative” members of your stepfamily so you can feel calm and confident?
Believe in the positive, empowering results possible from compassionate support, self-awareness and creative thinking?
What Stepmoms Say
Cathryn taught me things that I didn’t even know I didn’t know. She taught me how to break down problem areas so that I could tackle the root of the problems instead of just putting a bandaid on top. At smoms.org we help each other remember that we’re strong, capable, loving women with tools to tackle any obstacle that gets in our way.

I worked privately with Cathryn and I worked in group seminars. I cannot tell you how valuable this experience was for me and for my marriage. I was able to make more personal growth in a single year than I had in 40 years.

Cathryn is not only going to be your biggest cheerleader, but will help you learn about yourself and your situation in a way that’s safe, empowering and helpful—and at your own speed. I’ve learned there’s always a choice you can make about how to handle a situation. I can’t say enough about how Cathryn and my sister SMOMS helped me.
