Great to meet you!

On the outside, you may be high-achieving and appear to have it all together. Inside, you're exhausted from overthinking, second-guessing yourself, and feeling like nothing you do is enough. You say yes when you want to say no, feel guilty putting yourself first, and worry about disappointing others. In relationships, you struggle to express what hurts, question whether you're asking for too much, or give more than you receive. Maybe you've spent years being the strong one, keeping the peace, or putting others first because past experiences taught you that your needs came last.

My approach to therapy

I help women struggling with anxiety, unresolved trauma, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment. Together, we'll explore how past experiences shaped the way you see yourself and relate to others, why your mind stays on high alert, why you silence your needs, and why keeping the peace may have felt safer than expressing what you truly think, feel, and need.

What you can expect from me

Together, we'll work toward helping you reconnect with yourself and your needs, communicate and honor your boundaries, develop healthier relationship patterns, experience greater emotional safety, and maintain connection with others without sacrificing who you are.
