About My Clients

If you were the “responsible" one growing up (the high-achieving, people-pleasing golden child) but now you’re feeling overwhelmed by overthinking, juggling expectations, and carrying unspoken weight from past relationships or experiences - you’re in the right place. You’ve likely tried the self-help books, the yoga, the breathwork... but you continue to feel stuck.

My Background and Approach

Whether it’s navigating people-pleasing, reclaiming boundaries, or healing from sexual trauma, our work together will focus on slowing down, deepening your understanding of yourself and creating a life that you are excited about. I specialize in helping high-achieving women reconnect with themselves, beyond the pressure to be perfect. I support women ready to explore the patterns that hold them back, including those rooted in family dynamics, relational trauma, and old messages of self-criticism. In our work together, we’ll go beyond quick fixes and explore what’s keeping you stuck. My style is collaborative, down-to-earth, and transparent, and humor and honesty are welcome. My goal isn’t to “fix you, but to support you in finding real, lasting connections with yourself and others. If you’re looking for someone who can keep up with the chaos of your mind so you can feel safe slowing down, reach out for a free consult call.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I strive to create a safe space for LGBTQIA+ individuals and all ethnic and minority groups. I embrace diversity in my practice and therapeutic work, and I aim to enable clients to feel closer to a life of meaning and purpose with each session. I welcome you to reach out for a consult call to begin your journey toward healing.
