Welcome.
If your mind never stops spinning…
If you’re exhausted from trying to hold everything together…
If you feel like no matter how much you do—it’s never enough— you’re in the right place.
You’re smart. You’re capable. You get things done.
But you’re also anxious, stretched thin, and quietly running on fumes.
You overthink every decision, replay conversations, and live with a low hum of pressure that never really shuts off.
You’ve read the books. Listened to the podcasts. Tried “self-care.”
But what you really want is peace that sticks.
Calm that doesn’t crumble the second life gets messy.
Real tools that work with your brain and nervous system, not against them.
That’s what I teach.
With nearly 20 years of experience as a therapist, I use proven, evidence-based methods—
like CBT for rewiring anxious thought patterns,
somatic therapy for calming your body,
and mindfulness practices that restore focus and ease.
Together, we’ll build your personal toolkit to:
Calm your racing mind
Create balance and boundaries that actually hold
End the people-pleasing cycle
Speak your truth without guilt
Feel grounded, clear, and at peace in your own skin
You don’t need to be “fixed.”
You just need the right tools, the right support, and permission to be human again.
Let’s help you trade anxiety for clarity, perfectionism for peace, and burnout for a life that feels steady, joyful, and yours.
When anxiety and perfectionism take hold, it can feel like an endless loop of worry, overthinking, and self-doubt. You may find yourself chasing impossible standards, avoiding conflict, or putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own.
These patterns are draining, but they can be interrupted—and replaced with healthier, more empowering ways of being.
Using evidence-based tools like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we’ll challenge the anxious thoughts that keep you stuck and develop healthier ways of thinking.
With Mindfulness Practices and Somatic Therapy, we’ll calm your nervous system so you feel more at ease, grounded, and connected to yourself.
If you’re tired of people-pleasing, therapy will help you practice Boundary-Setting, prioritizing your needs without guilt, and confidently speaking your truth.
It’s liberating (and empowering) to be able to live authentically.
Therapy is about lasting transformation. Together, we’ll replace old patterns with tools to create peace, confidence, and freedom that stick.
