As far as everyone can tell, you’re doing fine…
Underneath it’s a different story, you’re overwhelmed & frustrated struggling to find your way while keeping it all together. Maybe, you work hard because that’s what you saw growing up. You tell yourself, “I have to be strong”. Well guess what?
Strong can be exhausting.
You feel out of control and unpredictable more often. It’s like you know what you should do and what the right way to respond is, but you can’t do it. The stress and anxiety you feel has you getting angry and frustrated at those you love. You feel guilty when you try to take time for yourself. You can’t focus or relax and keep busy to avoid the quiet.
Any of this sound familiar?
You’re paralyzed by anxiety about what life will throw at you next. Your mind races and it's difficult to settle down.
You have trouble falling asleep, only to be awakened at 2am by nightmare or panic attack.
You just do not know how to say “NO!” No matter how badly you need or want to, you over-commit, over-work, over-sacrifice, over-give, until you feel like a shell of yourself.
Relationships are unfulfilling and lonely. You can’t relate to the people in your life, you feel drained by the relationships closest to you?
You often feel overwhelmed or confused by your emotions. You feel everything, but you can never seem to figure out the right way to express those feelings.
You are feeling disconnected from yourself, “Who am I?” feels like a rubrik’s cube. You have no idea what you want out of life, what brings you joy, or even how to figure it out.
Let’s be honest…
You’ve read all the self-help books, taken yoga classes, journaled, listened to podcasts. You even tried talk therapy.
But none of it has helped long-term. At the end of each day you dread what tomorrow will bring.
There is a way out of the place you’re in today.
Tomorrow can be different.
You don’t have to navigate this alone.

How it works…
Step 1
Schedule free consultation
Use the link below to schedule initial meet & greet. You can ask any questions you may have and we can get a sense of one another’s personalities to see if it feels right. If therapy with me isn’t the right way to go, I’ll help you get connected to some trusted and vetted referrals.
Step 2
Begin healing
Find a private, comfortable place for your sessions and be open to go beyond coping skills and breathing exercises. Commit to our weekly or bi-weekly therapy sessions by showing up ready to dig in and explore narratives, patterns and behaviors that have you reliving the past, avoiding the present and unable to move forward.
Step 3
See Change!
Through our work together, you’ll discover new insights and we’ll make sure you’re not just maintaining your progress, but get you back to living your best life with confidence and clarity!
