You’re a high-achieving, sensitive, woman who’s feeling burned out, anxious, and weighed down by past trauma. You’re seeking balance, inner peace, and a way to express your true self authentically. Struggling with work-life balance, perfectionism, and people-pleasing, you know there’s more to life than constant hustle. Your goal is to transform your life, finding strength and connection while releasing societal pressures. You want to thrive and embrace your true self with empowerment and self-compassion. You value a holistic, science-backed, and trauma-informed approach, ready to invest in your well-being and personal growth.
I help overwhelmed sensitive/neurodivergent adults find balance and inner peace. With my training in EMDR, somatic, and IFS approaches, we'll work together to heal past wounds, reduce anxiety, and overcome burnout. I also offer neurodiversity-affirming ADHD/Autism testing. Let’s create a personalized plan of empowerment together.
I strive to create a safe & inclusive space for you to be heard, understood, & respected as your authentic self. Using science, social justice, warmth, humor (when appropriate), & our combined wisdom/intuition, let's collaboratively explore your needs to create a personalized plan to reach your goals.
