Individual Therapy
You work hard to hold everything. And you’re tired.
Cultivate a healthy relationship with yourself.
If you find yourself exhausted and feeling unseen…
If everything feels out of balance and you aren’t quite sure how to get your life or relationships back to a good place…
If it feels like everyone else’s needs have come first – kids, partner, home, work… and you’re not even on the list…
If you’re burned out, overfunctioning, and feeling like ‘It’s all on me’…
If you feel like ‘If I don’t do it, no one will… or they won’t do it right’…
If you are looking for support to create what comes next – where your goals and dreams (or even just what you want for dinner!) are a part of your days…
Welcome.
You can keep everything going, but it is a heavy load. You know something major needs to change – it’s been brewing inside of you for a while – but you’re not quite sure what it is, where to start, or how to do it… or if everything will be okay if you go through with it.
All of this can build up and…
Make it difficult to make decisions (or at least important ones)
Make you feel angry or anxious or overwhelmed on repeat
Make it hard to lean on other people
Make it feel like you need to put everyone else's needs before your own
You’re used to taking care of everyone and everything – and you’re probably really good at it! – but things are out of balance and it’s time to see what else is possible. Something has got to give.
So how do you prioritize yourself without feeling like you’re letting others down? How can you get to a place where the weight of it all feels lighter?
Therapy is a great place to start.
I’ll work with you to
Gain a deeper understanding of yourself and why ‘doing it all’ is so hard to set down
Establish goals of what you want to change – we’ll move at the pace of you
Help identify new, sustainable ways to move forward – I have a deep toolkit for us to explore
Unhook from old stories and pain
Cultivate better boundaries and candidly express your needs and feelings to others
I help people
Who are going through midlife and are ready for some meaningful changes
Who aren’t sure how to keep their relationship feeling alive after so many years together
Who don’t want to be the one holding it all together anymore, but don’t know how to get things to change
When their kids leave home and they don’t know who they are anymore
My Approach
I bring over two decades of experience. I utilize evidenced-based, experiential and state-dependent modalities.
Bring Your Messiest Mess
My clients are exceptionally resourceful, thoughtful, and hard working, but therapy is not the place to be our most perfect and filtered selves. I invite you to show up with all your messiest mess. Wherever you are in your journey is okay.
We all get stuck in cyclical habits, feelings, and defenses which leave us stressed, anxious, depressed, or just not our best selves in the world. The places you get stuck in aren’t coincidental – I can help you figure out why you get hung up there, and what to do about it.
Wherever you are, that’s where we’ll start – and we’ll use that data to get to work. At the risk of sounding too therapist – the most stuck places are also the ones with the most fertile ground for movement – they supply our breadcrumb trail to finding your path to more satisfaction in your life and relationships.
We will know we’re on the right path when you’re feeling relief overall, more grounded and brave in your life, more skillful in difficult moments in your relationships and experiencing more clarity and less anxiety.
I am here to walk with you, hold hope, and see possibility.
I provide therapy that teaches you new skills to handle old challenges and deepens your understanding of yourself. Whether you feel frozen or furious or are afraid nothing is going to work, I am here to help you not feel tipped over by everyone else and their needs, and instead to find embodiment and live into your wholeness.
Move Forward with Practical Tools
My expertise lies in supporting adults who need some reinforcements to power their personal journey or enact change in their relationship. I bring all my expert knowledge from my couples speciality to my work with you individually.
My approach is all about providing practical tools and deeper understanding to help you develop clarity and confidence, empowering you to move forward both in your relationships and in your quest for fulfillment and joy.
I’m not afraid of the tough stuff life brings – I’ve been through my fair share, and I have accompanied clients through all kinds of life-y-ness over the last two+ decades
My focus is on providing understanding and guidance, helping you navigate your situation with compassion and clarity. While change may seem daunting, together we can explore possibilities and find ways to create small shifts that can lead to greater fulfillment and contentment, even in challenging circumstances.
