Hi, I’m Catherine Mitchell — a mom, certified reading therapist, and dyslexia specialist right here in Fort Worth.

Hi, I’m Catherine — a mom, certified reading therapist, and dyslexia specialist right here in Fort Worth.

After watching my own daughter struggle with reading for years despite tutors and school help, I left the classroom to create the exact program I wish we had: gentle, 1:1 online reading therapy that actually works.

Most kids gain 1+ grade level in just 12 weeks with my Progress Promise — or I keep working for free until we reach the goal.

If your child is frustrated, guessing at words, or shutting down around reading time… you’ve found someone who truly understands.

From My Daughters to Hundreds of Kids Like Yours

I trained with the founders of breakthrough reading programs and pored over research.
But more importantly—I learned, as a mom and therapist, that progress comes from rebuilding the reading pathway the brain actually needs: speech → sounds → letters → words → meaning.

When I finally saw my daughter read her first book in third grade—after being told she might never learn—I cried with relief and pride.
Today, she’s a college graduate.
That’s the transformation I want for your family, too.
