​

Vulnerabilty is safe here.

Welcome! 

Have you become so accustomed to being the one everyone can count on that you’ve forgotten what it feels like to put yourself first? If you’ve felt the pressure to be perfect while pretending you’re okay... I'm glad you’re here.

 

You show up for others and are always working toward your next goal. You’re used to pushing through, even when you’re running on empty. You may feel guilty when you put yourself first, so you overthink decisions and second-guess yourself after you’ve made them. Even with a sense of purpose, the pressure to keep it all together can leave you feeling overwhelmed.

​

​

​

I can help you set healthier boundaries and find more peace without feeling responsible for everything and everyone.  

​​​​

​​You deserve more than just getting through the day; you deserve to live unbound and enjoy life. It starts with knowing that you can be the “strong one” without having to be strong all the time.

​

Together, we can explore the root causes of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and anxiety, and work toward healthier ways to cope with difficult emotions and unresolved past experiences.

​​​​​​

Let’s schedule a 15-minute consultation to talk through how therapy with me can support you.

​​​​​​​

I offer 60-minute individual therapy sessions (weekly, biweekly, and monthly).​​​

Guilt                             Grief & Difficult Life Experiences
Uncertainty                    Emotional Fatigue
Sadness                        Feeling Panicked
Feelings of Inadequacy   Fear of Making Mistakes
