You're accomplished, dependable, and often the person everyone turns to—but carrying it all can be exhausting. I work with professional women navigating anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, and major life transitions. For women who are used to being seen as “strong,” therapy can be a space where you don't have to perform or have it all figured out. Together, we'll explore what's beneath the stress, break unhelpful patterns, and build practical coping tools that fit your life. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, culturally responsive, and centered on you.
