Great to meet you!

You're not lazy, you're just overwhelmed. I work with women like you, who are working really hard to keep it all together. You feel exhausted from trying so hard but, at the same time, like you're not good enough. Despite your best efforts, that annoying little voice in your head tells you that you're falling short, that you should be doing more, achieving more, being more. That voice is lying to you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I love untangling all the weird and wonderful threads that make up who we are! I help my clients discover the best parts of themselves and uncover the parts they’re afraid no one will understand; the parts they’re ashamed of, the parts of themselves they’ve sacrificed to feel "good enough". My clients are curious about exploring their past to better understand how they arrived in the present. We'll work on unraveling your history while developing strategies to feel better in the present.

What you can expect from our first session

Here's the truth: you are enough, just as you are. It's not about doing everything perfectly; it's about talking back to that voice that says you're not good enough and allowing yourself the compassion you deserve. You never have to earn compassion by being hard on yourself.

Together, we'll untangle these knots of self-doubt and perfectionism, creating space for you to breathe, find self-compassion and finally feel good enough.
