If you’re someone who constantly feels “on”—thinking ahead, planning every detail, overanalyzing conversations, and trying to stay on top of everything—you’re not alone.

Maybe you look capable on the outside, but internally your mind rarely slows down. You replay decisions, put pressure on yourself to do things the “right” way, and carry the weight of relationships, work, family, finances, and the uncertainty of what’s next. You may even find yourself wondering whether you’re somehow falling behind compared to everyone else around you.

Over time, that constant mental load can become exhausting.

Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, driven, and highly self-aware, yet still find themselves stuck in cycles of anxiety, overthinking, perfectionism, and emotional overwhelm. They often wonder why it feels so hard to relax, be present, or fully enjoy their lives—even when they’re doing “all the right things.”

I specialize in helping individuals navigate overthinking, perfectionism, and overwhelm. I also work with those experiencing depression and relationship issues.

Many of my clients are millennials balancing careers, relationships, family expectations, major life transitions, and the pressure to hold everything together.

Therapy with me is collaborative, supportive, and grounded. Together, we’ll work to better understand the patterns keeping you stuck, quiet the constant self-pressure, and help you feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally present—without asking you to lower your standards or lose sight of what matters to you.

You do not need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. Most people reach out because they’re tired of carrying so much mentally and emotionally, even if they can’t fully explain why yet.

My goal is to provide a space where you can slow down, process what you’re experiencing, and begin feeling more like yourself again.

If you’re ready to get started, you can use the scheduling link to find a time that works best for you. I’m also happy to answer any initial questions and help you determine whether we’d be a good fit.

I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you in creating a life that feels a little lighter, calmer, and more manageable.
