Therapy Intensives to help you be yourself —without performing, proving, or pretending.
For women who are there for everyone else, and ready for real support, too.

Vulnerabilty is safe here.
Welcome!
You’ve built a life that looks successful on the outside, yet lately it’s been harder to quiet your mind, trust yourself, and feel steady without pushing harder. You say yes when everything in you tells you to say no, but you’ve conditioned yourself to go against what you want to accommodate what others need.
This constant pressure to stay productive, exceed expectations, and keep others happy has left you anxious, stretched thin, and second-guessing decisions that once came naturally.
Anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing keep you on edge, internally struggling with self-doubt because of the negative messages you've internalized along the way that still guide your decisions and contribute to the belief that you may not be enough.
You don’t have to stay in this survival mode, overwhelmed by the pressure to be everything to everyone. Peace doesn’t require perfection, and people-pleasing only keeps you stuck in a cycle that no longer serves you.
Therapy with me can help you regain emotional balance without asking you to stop being driven or successful. It's not about lowering your standards; it's about refusing to choose habits that lead to self-betrayal.
I offer focused intensives for women who want deeper work in less time, as well as individual therapy sessions (weekly, biweekly, and monthly).
I created Basileia Counseling (Bas-ih-lay-uh), a name that reflects your inner power and authority. It represents the insight already within you waiting to be accessed, trusted, and used to create a more grounded and meaningful life.
Success in your life and relationships doesn’t require striving, proving, or over-functioning.
Are you ready to invest in yourself and focus on what matters most to your overall well-being?
I will help you process your present and past experiences, to clarify the next steps that support stability and progress
.....to live out your meaningful purpose.
Are you ready to find balance and allow yourself to be H.U.M.A.N.?
