Do you find yourself feeling too much and not enough all at once? Do you sometimes feel stuck? Broken? Have you ever asked yourself, “Why can’t I just be normal,” or “What is wrong with me?” Maybe you behave in ways that don’t feel true to yourself for fear of rejection or abandonment, and perhaps you even end up in unhealthy or one-sided relationships. I believe that just by coming to this page there is something fundamentally “right,” not “wrong" with you. Being a human is complicated, messy, and can be painful; I feel honored to have the opportunity to support you through these challenges in a way that fosters healing and growth.
My clients have often taken care of others more than they have themselves. They might secretly feel resentful or frustrated. However, they have an innate desire to move beyond people pleasing toward their authentic self. I work with individuals to address struggles with communication, anxiety, panic, relationship problems, codependency, trauma, and PTSD.
With great compassion and a little humor, I will gently challenge you to deconstruct the harmful, often oppressive, internalized systems, experiences, and voices perpetuating unhelpful patterns in your life. I will help you build a toolbox of practical skills so you can reconnect to yourself, find joy, fulfillment, and make lasting changes!
